For
centuries, the greatest achievement of the visual artist has been to
have their pieces displayed with reverence and acclaim in an art
gallery. Royal families, governments and aristocratic people have
been enjoying the look of art adorning their own or public venue
walls for just as long. For today’s artists, having their work seen
and appreciated is just as important, but the approach they take in
getting it in front of viewers has evolved. Here are just some of the
reasons artists have moved on to the online art gallery.
Affordability
There
is typically no overhead cost to hosting artistic creations online,
and creators – should they choose to use a paid service or online
sales site – can often profit from sharing or distributing their
work.
Accessibility
A
large percentage of the population is able to access the internet,
which makes sharing one’s art online a great decision for those
looking to broaden their audience.
Artistic
Freedom
Unlike
the traditional curated venue, online
art galleries
offer
hosting for nearly any type of art, and give an enthusiastic audience
to creators of all kinds. This, perhaps above all other reasons is
why so many modern creatives are moving their content online and
enjoying the benefits of the internet for sharing their passion with
the world.
