OUR STORY

The ArtBarcs Story

ArtBarcs was inspired by two simple facts: for art lovers, traditional approaches to discovering art can be time consuming, frustrating, and inefficient. And for artists, getting discovered by a global audience can be frustrating, expensive, and time-consuming.
ArtBarcs has invested significant funds and assembled an incredible team of art experts, Ph.D. researchers, and veteran business executives to provide the solution! First, our curators continuously scour the world to locate and vet the finest living artists who have the talent and potential to become famous masters. Second, we created the patent-pending Art Recommendation Technology (ART) in which we have catalogued numerous attributes of their artwork. This fun platform allows art fans to discover and share the art they love, see the artwork most loved by millions of other ArtBarcs patrons, and even to purchase artwork that may appreciate in value significantly. Finally, we launched the world's first and largest ArtBarcoding™ initiative so that art lovers can scan and discover artwork all over the world both on our website and in real life!
ArtBarcs is also a place to start, or build your art collection. Whether your budget is $100 or $10,000, ArtBarcs helps you support the artists and take home the art you love most And since the art you discovered was vetted by curators and loved by millions, there is a good chance that your art may significantly appreciate in value in the years to come.
Finally, the ArtBarcs story is not limited to our website. The ArtBarcs barcodes are popping up next to thousands of pieces of art all over the world. When you see an "ArtBarcode", scan it, discover and learn, and vote and share! ArtBarcs even allows you to physically locate the art you love most, and to "meet" the art and the artists where ever you are traveling!

Our Mission

The ArtBarcs mission is to break down the barrier that stands between contemporary art appreciation and the general public, and to grow and nurture a democratic spirit where every artist on the site has the opportunity to get discovered and become an audience favorite. Our hope is to create immediate connections between the audience and artist, and that new talent will rise to the top; achieving recognition far beyond the ArtBarcs site all over the world. When you see an "ArtBarcode", scan it, discover and learn, and vote and share! ArtBarcs even allows you to physically locate the art you love most, and to "meet" the art and the artists where ever you are traveling!
By engaging a team of art professionals, business leaders, critics, and patrons, ArtBarcs has created an infrastructure to both support artists and encourage art appreciation among a wider audience, including the business professional community, corporations and institutional collectors.
