Giving artwork as a gift - a very personal gesture

Finding the perfect gift - for a birthday, a special celebration or Christmas - that captures emotions and creates lasting memories can be a real challenge. The good news is, giving art as a gift is possible and very special! An original artwork offers the opportunity to express feelings, narratives and individuality. Discover the value of art as a personal gift.


Timeless

Unlike trendy gifts, art retains its timeless beauty and relevance. A painting, sculpture or photograph can gain meaning and value over the years and become a lasting reminder of special moments and feelings. Fads go, art stays!


Emotional

Art enables an emotional expression that is difficult to put into words. By choosing art as a gift, you show empathy and can reach a new emotional depth with the recipient.

Art -

a lasting gift

In a world that is often characterized by hecticness and uncertainty, art is a valuable source of inspiration and comfort. This is one of the many reasons that led us to found ato and develop a fair sales system.


The value of art for society

Works of art are not only a form of personal expression, but often also a reflection of the social, political and economic realities of a time. They can address important social issues, denounce grievances and encourage reflection on current events. Art has the power to initiate discussions, broaden perspectives and initiate change. For this reason, art is an indispensable building block for a responsible and compassionate society.


The importance of art in times of crisis

In times of crisis, the social significance of art becomes particularly clear. Artists can provide comfort, broaden perspectives and convey hope through their works. The acquisition of art is not only an investment in the preservation of cultural heritage, but also an investment in one's own and society's well-being.


Transparent and fair sales participation for artists

Choosing to buy an artwork from ato means supporting our vision of a more transparent and fairer art market. Our model stipulates that ato's artists receive a 70% share of sales. This is higher than the usual gallery rate of 50%. Through fair sales shares, we want to ensure that ato's artists are appropriately remunerated for their artistic work.

Lease art at a reasonable price

Would you like to give an artwork as a gift, but would like to pay in installments? No problem! We want to make buying and giving an artwork as easy as possible. Not everyone can afford to buy works of art worth several thousand euros. That's why we have developed a cost-effective leasing model that makes it possible to enjoy art in your everyday environment without breaking your own budget.


The monthly leasing amounts depend on the price of the artwork, but start from as little as €20. The great thing is, unlike renting, leasing can be understood as a kind of installment payment and the lessee has the option of buying the artwork at a residual value after 2 years.
