SAATCHI

The growing digital age offers a wide variety of styles and art. It has developed new purposes for art such as web design and digital animation. But the digital realm also offers a new way to advertise artwork. Saatchi is a website that sells artwork. Unlike showcases, Saatchi supports any artist, new or famous, and sells their artwork while giving the artist a fairer share of the profit (75% versus the 50% most galleries offer)

WILL THE DIGITAL AGE ENCOURAGE TRADITIONAL ARTISTS?

DIGITAL WEBSITES

  • Pinterest
  • Tumblr
  • Instagram
  • Deviant art
Websites such as Pinterest, tumblr, Instagram, and deviant art offer a free public presentation of any artist's work.

PINTEREST.COM

Pinterest.com allows the public to pin anything they see from the internet, which will then show up on a constant stream for their followers to see. Pinterest also allows for uploading one's own images, which can then be spread around. When clicking on an image, Pinterest will link it to the website of origin, which allows lesser known blogs and stores to be seen.

INSTAGRAM

Instagram is like Facebook with photos. It allows followers and offers an easy way to share photos and art. However, Instagram has the right to access and use any photo shared.

TUMBLR

Tumblr.com is like Pinterest, only more disorganized. It allows the public to link and share photos in a constant photo stream

DEVIANTART

Deviantart.com is purely for artists to gather and share their artwork. It allows comments and critiques and showcases competitions for artists to partake in.

WHAT THEY OFFER

These popular websites offer a clean and easy way for the public to access art, organize it, and develop a sense of what they appreciate. The digital age offers more opportunity for beginning artists and can spread their artwork faster.
