One-to-One Studio Visits

Our studio visits offer artists dedicated time to discuss their work in depth within the context of their own studio or workspace.
 
These informal one-hour sessions provide an opportunity to step back from the day-to-day process of making and have an honest conversation about your practice. Every artists’ practice is unique and so each visit is shaped around what would be most valuable to you.
 
Discussions might include work currently in development, refining ideas, preparing for exhibitions, editing bodies of work, funding applications, portfolio reviews, professional opportunities or simply talking through where your practice might go next.
 
Studio visits are currently available across Hastings, St Leonards, Rye and Bexhill. For visits in other locations please email george@amici.art to enquire 
 
Suitable for
 
* Individual critical feedback
* Developing new work
* Exhibition preparation
* Professional advice
* Clarifying direction

About George Mingozzi-Marsh
 
George Mingozzi-Marsh is one of the founders of Amici Studio and has spent more than fifteen years working with artists through galleries, exhibitions, mentoring and curatorial practice.
 
He began his career at Christie’s Auction House before founding his first gallery in 2012. Since then he has established and directed a number of artist-led organisations and exhibition platforms, including the sculpture park Contemporary Sculpture Fulmer, which operated for seven years, and an international artist residency programme in Mexico City.
 
In 2020 he co-founded Brooke Benington, a contemporary gallery based in Fitzrovia, London, representing emerging and established artists until its closure in 2026. During this time he curated exhibitions, built private and corporate collections, and facilitated acquisitions by collectors, museums and institutions in the UK and internationally.
 
Alongside his gallery practice, George has mentored emerging artists for the Royal Society of Sculptors and has been a guest tutor at Kingston School of Art and Goldsmiths, University of London.

How it works for Galleries

Amici brings together galleries from different parts of the world, encouraging them to collaborate, share resources, and expand their reach. Through shared exhibitions hosted online and promoted via Amici.Art, galleries can connect with a global audience, enabling clients to browse and purchase artworks directly.

No Sign-up Fees
Galleries only pay a £50 administration fee once a Host and Visitor gallery are successfully paired.

Shared Risk and Profit
Operating costs and profits are shared between Host and Visiting galleries, with Amici taking a 5% commission from each gallery on sales made through the platform only.

Benefits for All Participants

  • Host Gallery: Reduce operating costs, diversify programming, and gain access to new, international audiences.
  • Visiting Gallery: Showcase your artists globally while leveraging the infrastructure of local galleries, avoiding the hectic, costly art fair experience.

Inclusivity and Fair Practice
Amici is committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity, with all galleries adhering to our Code of Conduct.

What We Provide

  • Access to a global network of galleries
  • Tools for event promotion and ticketing
  • Online gallery
  • Printed and digital sales and promotion assets
  • Discounts on services like insurance, shipping, and photography

Ready to Collaborate?
Your gallery should represent artists and maintain a regular exhibition programme in a permanent space to participate. 

Through collaboration, Amici fosters a supportive environment where galleries thrive together by building meaningful connections and expanding their influence.

    About Amici Studio

    Amici Studio is a multi-use creative space based in Hastings, East Sussex. Opening in January 2026 at 12 Claremont, next to Hastings Library, the Studio delivers a public programme of exhibitions, events and learning activity for artists, creative practitioners and local communities across Hastings, St Leonards and the wider East Sussex coast.

    Exhibitions

    The programme is structured around six two-month blocks across the year, each anchored by a core exhibition. These exhibitions form the backbone of Amici Studio’s activity and are accompanied by a wider layer of public-facing events, discussions and artist-led activity.

    Events and Public Programme

    Alongside exhibitions, Amici Studio hosts talks, performances, Salon Dinners and a monthly talks programme launching in spring 2026. These events create opportunities for conversation, exchange and shared experience around contemporary practice.

    Artist Development

    Amici Studio supports artist development through mentoring, portfolio conversations and practical workshops. These activities are designed to reduce barriers to participation, particularly for young people, early-career practitioners, disabled people and carers, and those facing financial or social obstacles to accessing arts and culture.

    In Progress

    When needed, the studio will host short-term artist In Progress occupations, offering space for live making, experimentation and exchange. These projects are process-led and provide opportunities for artists and audiences to engage with work in development.

    Community and Collaboration

    Amici Studio works closely with local partners and organisations, including Project Art Works, who are based in the same building. Collaboration and shared activity are central to the Studio’s approach, supporting connections across practices and communities.
