How to start a business to represent an artist?

Question

My friend is an established artist in Europe. He needs someone to represent him in the U.S. How should I help him if I've never been in art business?

Answer 1

I'm doing the same, for an artist friend, who lives in Europe.
I previously did it for an American artist. It's a lot of work, be sure you want to and can do it, before you get involved. It's very time consuming.
