I just can’t explain to you how quite a few pitches I have acquired over the several years from startup galleries completely ready to choose your funds and wanting me to assistance them signal you up. I passed on 100% of those. (You’re welcome.)

But I am impressed by the providers one particular on the net space has been offering artists and customers considering that 2006. 

On this episode of The Art Biz, I’m joined by Alex Farkas, founder of UGallery.com.

I want to be obvious that I am not carrying out a industrial for UGallery. My intention is to display you that there are excellent people today out there who can enable you market your artwork. Alex and his staff are but one of them.

Their enterprise design feels various from several (most) of the other online galleries. They know artwork. They curate the work so there aren’t 1000’s of random artists competing for eyeballs.

UGallery is compensated on commission, so they only make dollars if art sells. They devote in advertising and marketing to aid provide much more art. They are wanting for interactions with their artists and nurture their artists to help them offer superior on the net.

The concentrate of UGallery is on painting, but you should really hear to their tale even if you are not a painter for the reason that you have to have to know that there are people and corporations out there who are on your aspect and executing matters the appropriate way.
