The gist of the article is pretty simple: find a gallery that you like to be in, with photos or without. Or you can use the Thomas Kinkade technique: open up your own gallery.
It's a fascinating article. www.art-support.com has a list of 95% of the galleries in the US that deal primarily in photography. It's only $25. For what it's worth, there is a new gallery that just opened up in New York City, Point of View Gallery, that is currently accepting submissions. The owner is a very nice, charming French woman who seems to have a very intriguing taste in the artwork she hangs in her gallery. http://www.pointofviewartgallery.com/index.html I have not, as of yet, had a free Saturday to venture into Chelsea and take a look at her gallery, but as of right now it appears she only has two artists she's representing.
Yeah - you can pay $25 or just look up the members of AIPAD and get 90% of those for free.
The AIPAD Galleries are members of AIPAD for a reason. It is highly unlikely any photographer who has never had representation from even some of the smaller galleries would be picked up by an AIPAD member gallery. It's not only a matter of quality of a photographer, but also name recognition that gets people in the door. Plus AIPAD only represents about 45% of the population of the US photography galleries.
