well, you can always use the other method of indicating price without actually displaying it that my gallery-owning friends used - the works were displayed with title and sometimes a number, and then they made up a "catalogue" - really just a photocopied list of the works with title and number and price that sat out on a counter or somewhere obvious for the interested to pick up *smiling* anything sold gets a nice little red dot-sticker on its wall-tag. i'm not sure why this method was used - maybe the artists preferred it not to look like the main focus was on selling rather than showing, maybe it was a holdover from more decorous times when there was a bigger separation, at least in the perceptions of artist and public, between the divine muses and commerce *grins* i've been to shows where you have to ASK the price of a work, and the curator or whoever's in charge murmurs it at you discreetly. *laughing* that approach usually signals the approach of a serious pain in the wallet...
