Run Script after a field is entered or inputted

I have an artist field in an artwork record. Upon entering the field I would like FM to check the name against the records in the artist table. This I know how to do.

However, when the name doesn't come up a match I would like to go to a particular layout or be able to run a script that prompts me to add a new artist record. How do I do that???

Instead of a normal field, get users to enter the data into a scripted Custom Dialog. Once entered, the script can decide what to do.

Alternatively an event plugin might do the job. There is a free one for FMP 7 floating around.
