I'm not talking about PBS type of things. I am referring to private photogs, art / photo critics, things like that.
Personally, I think it is kinda tacky. I've always worked on a low budget and been short on $, so I have been completely self-funded with my work. I've only asked for donations a few times writing to institutions directly for certain projects. I never got a penny. I'm not much of a fund raiser, so I just put my time in producing within my budget instead of waiting for pie in the sky money that never materializes. I thought about 'go fund me' type of thing, but they don't like the type of projects I work on. (sexually explicit)
