Recently I entered into a contractual agreement with one of Jayson Samuel's galleries. Jayson Samuel is the Marketing Director for Artisan Direct Ltd. His manager asked for $1025 in exchange for a 2-page spread in a magazine and for the placement of my art piece "Magic Chair" in Red Dot Miami December. I paid the money and the magazine was printed. On the day of the opening of Red Dot Miami, his manager called me to tell me that Jayson Samuel had changed his mind and that he would not be putting "Magic Chair" in the show. I called Jayson Samuel, who laughed at me when I asked for my money back. His manager immediately reimbursed me $450 for the gallery membership that I paid to be in Red Dot (per his instructions from Jayson Samuel). The magazine was printed with errors that I had corrected and resubmitted with revisions. The errors were obvious so the publisher does not proofread the layouts after the artist spends $575.
