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.

❋ 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.
