The state of art in America
Article Abstract:
ArtAmerica aims to alter the system of art distribution to benefit both artists and the market. The company collects various contemporary art pieces and offers these for lease or sale to collectors and corporations. This system gives artists an opportunity to showcase their works and earn royalties while clients can rent or buy quality art works at lower prices. ArtAmerica ensures art quality through its highly qualified advisory board. It also helps companies acquire other art pieces through its contacts with artists. Thus, the company helps promote art awareness and keeps the art market going.
