Art brokerage and sales? Art mediation, art consulting?? I'm not really happy with any of them. Thanks for any suggestions.

art promotion
I would use this wording because it covers a wide spectrum,from individual sponsors to galleries and publishers, without implying that they are necessarily patrons or dealers.
I agree that a Kunstvermittler is someone who brings art to a wider audience - a phrase like "promoter of the fine arts" springs to mind.

Comment: "Thanks again for some great suggestions. I decided to play it safe with 'art promotion' although further on in the text I did use 'making art accessible to a wider audience'. Sorry I can't split the points."

conveying and selling art
Ich neige eher zu der Vermutung, dass man auf der Messe Kunst nicht nur verkaufen (brokerage eingeschlossen), sondern auch vermitteln im Sinne von "convey" will.

bringing art to the masses
I'm going off at a tangent here, but perhaps "bringing art to the masses", might be a neat and marketing-y way to get around this. You'd probably have to rework the sentence to bring in the "sales" element, though.

No, it doesn't mean that. But I did say that I was "going off at a tangent"!
