Hi,I don't see exact in the doc, so that's not a thing. The search as implemented gives you its best guess, and since Louise Jones is not on Artsy, you get Louise Bourgeois. You could limit the size of the result set to get the top result with size=1.It's pretty safe to assume in Artsy data that if Louise Jones were on Artsy that https://api.artsy.net/api/artists/louise-jones would exist. Just like https://api.artsy.net/api/artists/louise-bourgeois. These are "slugs", converted with https://github.com/mongoid/mongoid-slug if you want a reference implementation.Hope this helps. Someone at Artsy should probably make it easier to search for exact matches in the API.cheersdB.

Hi,--
I am developing a small mobile app as a proof of concept using Google’s cross platform framework flutter and I decided to leverage your public api.
I am able to retrieve a valid x-xapp-token but I am struggling on how to execute an exact search for a specific artist by name. I have spent some time with your API Playground but the results I see are not what I was expecting nor when executing queries via my apps http get requests.
I am currently trying:
https://api.artsy.net/api/search?q=Louise%20Jones&exact=true
This returns over 6k results and contain artist names being or including Louise. If you could offer me a little insight on what I am doing wrong that would be very helpful,Thanks!
