I usually show an artist for at least two years and often longer, but would never stop them from showing elsewhere. Each year I have at least two new artists, so the show has a different feel to it. I show the work of artists who have exhibited previously in a different area of the house. A mixture of the familiar and new seems to work. People often ask us about artists I have previously shown, so I try to keep in contact with them all and pass on relevant details to interested parties. (Karen Laver’s cows are often enquired about). So it’s a great networking opportunity.
It is hard work keeping the house up to standard, the constant shifting of furniture, books, etc. but when I had a year off we did miss it and it didn't feel the same showing in someone else’s house.
