Art galleries on ArtMajeur

What is an art gallery on Artmajeur by YourArt?

An art gallery is a physical space dedicated to promoting artists by showcasing their works.

It selects, presents, and sells works within a physical gallery, thereby providing the artists it represents with increased visibility to a wider audience and its network.

It serves as an essential link between artists and the public, whether collectors, art enthusiasts, buyers, or public institutions, and should be differentiated from the role of an artist's agent or representative.

I am an artist agent; can I register as a gallery on ArtMajeur by YourArt?

No, and we actually have an offer specifically designed for you, artist agents, on ArtMajeur.

The agent is a career manager who is directly involved in the success of the artist. They accompany and are responsible for negotiating contracts and promoting the artist's work, as well as managing the commercial, legal, and media aspects related to the promotion of their work. They represent the artist as a person to professional partners, with an individualized and versatile approach. They will have less of a role in exhibiting works compared to the gallery owner, who focuses on disseminating the artist's work to professionals in the art market.

Both professions are therefore essential in the art market to enhance artists, but they are very different in their commitments.

Do I need to have a physical location to be considered a gallery?

Yes. A gallery can choose to:

• Have a physical space open to the public, such as an exhibition hall or showroom

• Be itinerant, by exhibiting in temporary locations, meeting its audience

• Host by appointment only, if your model is focused on private or exclusive visits.

I am an online gallery; what is my place on the platform?
