Company Overview
ArtExtend is an online art gallery focused on identifying, promoting, and selling original artwork created by artists in the developing world. ArtExtend primarily sells original oil and acrylic paintings through our online gallery. We identify artists by spending time on the ground in developing countries and develop long term relationships with artists, galleries and art institutions. The artists who we work with range from professional artists who display their pieces in galleries to up-and-coming artists who promote their works on the street. Our online gallery offers these artists an opportunity to share their artwork with an international audience. ArtExtend also serves as a platform to market and sell artwork, providing additional income for artists who often rely on selling artwork as the primary means to support themselves and their families.Our vision is to bridge the gap between talented artists in developing countries who lack the sales channels to sell their artwork and the international community in developed countries that seeks to purchase high quality original art at accessible prices. ArtExtend endeavors to achieve this vision through a market-based approach, which we believe is the most effective way to ensure large scale, sustainable impact in the countries we work in. We are also dedicated to supporting the development of future artists by donating 10% of profits to art-related educational programs for youth in the developing countries where we work.
