The French TV series
Call My Agent charting the lives of Parisian talent agents and the high-maintenance actors they look after (catering to their every whim) has become a cult Netflix hit.
Now, talent agencies are becoming increasingly common in the art world, with some visual artists choosing to depart traditional galleries in favour of working with agencies whose focus is more on building partnerships with brands and institutions (alongside selling their work of course).
While some of the larger movie and music agencies, such as the Los Angeles-based WME (part of Frieze parent company, Endeavor) and Creative Artists Agency (CAA), only occasionally focus on the visual arts, others like UTA (United Talent Agency) has a whole division devoted to it.
