YOU’RE NOT INVENTORY.

YOU’RE THE POINT.

How We Work With Artists

ici was built by people who believe artists deserve more than cold walls, vague promises, and one-sided deals. We don’t “represent” artists in the traditional sense — we collaborate with them.

Every ici show is co-created. Your work, your voice, your story — all front and center.

If that sounds like your kind of thing, keep reading..

❋ True Partnership

We operate on a transparent 50/50 commission model.
No submission fees. No hanging fees. No discounts. Ever.

You bring the work.
We build the experience around it.

Event production and curation

  • Guest lists and ticketing

  • Sales, payment processing, and follow-ups

  • Photography, content, and promotion

  • Collector relationships — before and after the event

You focus on what you do best: making work that matters.

❋ We handle

Each ici event features 3–8 artists selected to fit a shared theme — visually or emotionally. Shows are hosted in private homes or unique spaces across Boston, keeping the atmosphere intimate and the conversations real.

❋ Showing With ici
  • Present at the event

  • Introduced personally to collectors

  • Included in all event marketing and storytelling

  • Part of a curated, limited-run print drop

  • Paid promptly, with full transparency

This isn’t about hanging work and hoping for the best.
It’s about connection — and sales that come from it.

❋ You'll Be

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We care less about résumés and more about resonance. We’re drawn to artists who:

  • Have a clear point of view

  • Care about how their work lives in real spaces

  • Want to engage with people, not just walls

  • Value collaboration over hierarchy

Emerging, mid-career, self-taught, formally trained — if the work hits, we’re interested.
