ArtWizard for Galleries
ARE YOU A GALLERY?
The art industry has traditionally been restricted to physical location,
with complex and time consuming relations between galleries, artists and collectors.
We take care of them
Online sales of art and antiques reached a record high of $12,4 billion, doubling in value from 2019
E-commerce in the global retail sector accounted for 18% of total sales in 2020, up 4% in share year-on-year, and from a level of only 7% in 2015
31% of online sales went to buyers who previously had contact with the gallery, but only bought online from them for the first time in 2020 and 32% of NEW online buyers without personal contact
40% of dealers surveyed found OVRs helpful and rated those run internally by their own businesses ahead of fair-run platforms

More Key Findings for Online Art Market
- The share accounted for by online sales also expanded from 9% of total sales by value in 2019 to 25% in 2020, the first time the share of e-commerce in the art market has exceeded that of general retail
- The most commonly used channel for purchasing art online by high net worth (HNW) collectors surveyed in 2020 was online auctions, used by 49% to complete a purchase. Gallery OVRs were the second most popular overall (47%) and art fair OVRs ranked third (45%)
- Despite a high level of use in 2020, online channels were not the first preference for viewing art for sale: 66% of HNW collectors preferred to attend a physical exhibition, 22% preferred online, and 12% had no preference of one over the other
- 90% of HNW collectors visited an art fair or gallery OVR in 2020, and 72% felt it was important or essential to have a price posted when browsing works of art for sale online
- While only one in 40 clients had activated their OVR features pre-pandemic, one in three clients were using the tool in 2020
WHAT IS ARTWIZARD
ArtWizard is a Digital Art Platform for virtual exhibitions. We offer the opportunity to display, exhibit, buy and sell artworks by artists and galleries seeking greater access to art connoisseurs across borders, in the EU and the global world
In 2017 we created a unique Virtual Art Space™ for exhibitions on the ArtWizard Platform, where artworks can be seen in several (more than five) different environments, in proportions and scale, reflecting the direction and angle of the fall of light, and the spectator can see all artworks with a maximum precision that ensures an experience closest to the real contemplation of an artwork.
ArtWizard offers a live updated content of its platform in three different languages – English, French and Russian, so that we can reach faster and better different audiences. All our content is presented by professionals in all three languages in real time
ArtWizard offers a first-class experience for connoisseurs of fine art. Customers can purchase all artworks directly from the platform by sitting comfortably on the armchair in front of the fireplace or desk in their office, using virtual payment methods and receive their work with express delivery to their door, insured by a leading European company and delivered by a first-class courier company
The purpose of the platform is to open and make access to world and contemporary art independent of the physical location of the connoisseur / collector and artist or gallery, improving access to the general public, collectors and art galleries. ArtWizard makes the relationship of artists and galleries around the world easier through the innovative Virtual Art Space™, where their works can be represented

Virtual Art Space™
In 2017 we created a unique Virtual Art Space™ for exhibitions on the ArtWizard Platform, where artworks can be seen in several (more than five) different environments, in proportions and scale, reflecting the direction and angle of the fall of light, and the spectator can see all artworks with a maximum precision that ensures an experience closest to the real contemplation of an artwork.
We believe that digital technology is closely connected with art. This is why we created a special art environment where any artwork can be accessed by a much greater number of connoisseurs of fine art around the globe. In order to enjoy or exhibit artworks on the ArtWizard platform, all you need is an internet connection
Our wish is that each art piece from our exclusively selected artworks collection, exhibited through our platform, needs to be seen in excellent quality image and into the most realistic perspective and space possible. We can be your personal Wizard and transfer you into the world of our digital society of art lovers with the ArtWizard unique digital tools, so that everyone can feel and enjoy the displayed artworks
In all of the different environments, the viewer can see their exact dimensions, as well as those of the art objects exhibited in them. Most of the online viewing rooms (OVRs) contain furniture or objects which can be used to compare the dimensions and colors of the specific artwork. This allows all art viewers to see the realistic dimensions of the paintings and sculptures, as well as feel their colors and proportions
Any artist or gallery can exhibit their artworks on our platform and acquire a unique presentation of the works using special software developed by the ArtWizard team, which calibrates images of works and exposes them in a realistic view and perspective in OVRs, which can be easily accessed and enjoyed from anywhere in the world
