Focus Group Research Invitation: Calling for Art Lovers & Emerging Artists

This is a master project from Goldsmiths, the University of London. We are conducting a study on building communication between emeging artists and public art lovers through sharing their inspirations. We need a few people who are art lovers, art buyers, creative practitioners, emerging artists to join our discussion. You don't have to be so professional or experienced in art buying/ selling, but we do expect that you are interested in creative & art, and have paid/ willing to pay for it. We will have a 1-2 hour discussion about the current art market (online especially), the situation of emerging artists, and the connection between artists and the buyers. Prototype test may also be included. 

The discussion will be held in two ways: 

One way is online discussion (Skype) in a 3-5 people group, and it's voluntary. The date is optional and you can choose from one of our slots here: 13th May 8pm,15th May 8pm, 16th May 8pm.

The other way is a meetup discussion at Barbican's Cinema Cafe, if you are based in London and available on 13th May 3pm, 15th May 3pm, 16th May 4pm, 17th May 4pm. Travel expenses assistance will be provided, and also coffee & snack refreshments. 

All the information you give will be confidentially used to inform parts of our market research. Welcome to share your thoughts with us.
