Art Buffet establishes a fair system that allows you to try out any artwork on your walls - whatever the value. While you explore your tastes, we can determine the popularity of each piece, which in turn gives the price. Why is this a superior system to high street galleries and art rental services?
Art Buffet works because of the unique and mutually beneficial relationship between you and the artist. When you show an interest in a piece, the artist benefits directly.
Art Buffet provides you with a window into the contemporary art scene, immediately giving you access to hundreds of artworks by scores of artists.
You can experiment trying to find the perfect piece, or you can change your art as often as you change your mood.
Be your own art consultant. Find out if an ethereal mountain scene really does look better on your wall than a large, powerful abstract. You decide!
Because the prices are directly driven by demand, you can see what is popular and quickly be able to compare your own tastes to the art market as a whole.
With all these benefits from a few clicks in your lunch break, why would you ever risk buying from a gallery? Especially as every little bit of interest you show will provide value directly for the artist.
Art Buffet means better terms of trade for artists as well. While you experiment with different pieces, the artists not only have their work seen on more walls but also receive a regular income from allowing the loan of it.
In contrast to the gallery system, Art Buffet does not select artists; you select the artists! All artists’ work is accepted and the least favourite artwork lowers in price and drops out. By avoiding nepotism and cliquey politics we help the artist community work together rather than pitching them against one another.
Also when you buy, more of your money goes straight to the artist. They even earn royalties when you sell through Art Buffet.
All of this means greater and better rewards for artists. With your help, Art Buffet ensures that artists have the freedom and opportunity to increase and explore their creativity.
