Our Story

The world of Contemporary Art is, above all, international – and so is Find Art Globally. Our story began in 2014 with an idea to develop a global art store and a community for artists. We connect professional artists and art enthusiasts, making art from around the world easier to find.

We want our website to serve artists to the best of our ability, and therefore artists’ ideas and views were an important part of the development process. Our website offers artists an international community and residence opportunities; but above all: a clear, curated platform for displaying art. We hope that the features offered on our website can lead to new, international collaborations and provide inspiration for new creative work. We also wanted to surprise visitors with a monthly art raffle, which is open to all. While taking part in the raffle, you can easily find out more about the artist who created the work you are hoping to win.

After a long development process, we finally launched our website in 2017. Despite our young age, we continually develop by bringing out new, innovative services and features for our members and visitors. We already have new, exciting and useful features to introduce in 2018!
