TheArtKey for art galleries

Your benefits with a gallery profile on TheArtKey

Do you want NEW potential clients to know your gallery, your artworks on sale, the artists you represent as well as  your exhibitions? Ìf you do, it is not enough to have a nice own website. You cannot rely on being found by one of the existing internet search engines. The search entries are by far too unprecise, as well as the search results are by far to numerous. Your mailing list does not help either, as you only address people that you already know.

That's why there is TheArtKey.com - the professional network for visual art! With your gallery profile on TheArtKey.com, your at the global art stage at once. You can

  • portrait your gallery
  • upload artworks for sale

You also can publish your inventory of artworks and the artists you are representing.

But most important, you can post your exhibitions, be it as an announcement of what is currently going on or will come up in the future, be it as a retrospective on what has happenend in the past.

The more precise you describe these elements, the more precise they can be found by visitors of TheArtKey.com: by region, by style, by artist, etc. You can use various languages - TheArtKey.com supports already eight languages today, including Chinese and Russian.
