There has to choose. I think that without a gallery artist impossible to build a real career - you can regret it, you can enjoy this, but it is so. It depends on your ambitions, if you're comfortable selling work in a confidential manner, without show, without participation in various prestigious events - Your right, but it will take time before the auction houses to hear about you and want to have with you business. And you can find an honest and professional gallerist (and do not mind me, these are, I'll know some of them
), which will deal with your promotion is probably more professional than you do. Do not forget that for many important events are not invited to the artists, but only gallery.

And finally, name even one of the artist, who managed to push myself without gallery or agent? This is a mythical beast, the nature of such does not exist: p
But I wish you good luck in any case.
