Why buy art online?

Now more than ever, it's easy to view and purchase art online.

Museums are offering virtual tours of their exhibitions, and galleries are increasingly turning to online sales. While this creates new opportunities, it can also be overwhelming. Where do you start, and does the digital space replace the real art experience?

Online galleries aim to make art more accessible nationwide, reach a wider audience of buyers and simplify the process of getting started. Their lower overheads lead to greater diversity and give visibility to artists who often did not find a place in traditional galleries. Good online art platforms offer a high-quality, curated selection and personal advice. They also enable the real experience of art, for example through exhibitions. This maintains contact with artists and works, making a genuine art experience possible despite digital offerings.

So, how does an online gallery work?

Online galleries often focus on art in the mid-price range. Many platforms, including ato, rely on transparent pricing in their online shops. This lowers the inhibition threshold, as prices in traditional galleries are often only disclosed during personal conversations. Online retailers also offer flexible payment systems, sometimes even instalment payments. At ato, you can lease artworks for a specific period of time, which is ideal for adding variety to your home.
