Expand the Art Market to Support More Artists
We’re making it easier for more people to buy art—empowering even more artists to build sustainable careers and keep creating.

A World Where Everyone Is Moved by Art Every Day
We bring art into everyday life by providing the tools and inspiration that make connecting with art second nature.

Artsy was founded in 2009 by Carter Cleveland, a computer science student with a passion for art and a vision to make it more accessible. What began as a platform to help people find art online has grown into the largest art marketplace of its kind.
Today, over 3.4 million collectors and enthusiasts use Artsy to browse, learn about, and purchase works from the most respected names in contemporary and modern art. We’re proud to support the full spectrum of the art world—from major fairs and blue-chip galleries to independent artists and new buyers.
Our goal hasn’t changed:
To open the art world to everyone, everywhere.
