how do I find a large open space for 1-2 week rental to do art installation?
I am trying to find a space in Austin, TX to set up an art installation so I can photograph it for exhibition proposals. I need 1500-2000 square feet, white walls, neutral floors and to be able to hang stuff on the walls. Few windows and high ceilings are best. I would like to find a space to rent for 1-3 weeks or part time (perhaps a couple days a week for a month or two). I am very flexible with the schedule, for example could fit in between leases use the space on weekends or other days it is empty.
I’ve called warehouse owners and a few real estate agents, and nobody has been willing to do something so short term. Also posted an ad on craigslist and talked to a guy with a karate studio, but it has mirrors and wierd colors on the wall.
Any ideas on how to find something like this? What kind of places would have space like this that would be open to letting me use the space under such terms?
It is just a thought but…I remember from when I lived in Texas that many of the Churches had large reception rooms or multi-purpose areas decorated in very neutral colors.
I might be that for a “donation” one of them might let you use their facilities…of course depending on the “ART” you want to display…for a couple of days a week for a month or two.
Hope it is a good lead. Good Luck.
