DEAR LORIS,
	Sorry to hear that.  This reminds me of what the same photo
historian, professor, gallery owner said about selling photos, "It is 95 %
educating the interested party and 5% selling".  I think this will be your
challenge given your public.
		CHEERS!

  I'm aware of that but here in Turkey, that distinction absolutely 
doesn't work; we have only 4 or 5 serious galleries (including museum 
galleries) dedicated exclusively to photography. There are very few real 
experts / critics, and much less gallery owners / curators who really 
know something about photography. Therefore almost everyone falls in the 
"public" category, making the distinction moot...

Regards,
Loris.
