Hanging in Space


One of my paintings is hanging in Artsy! Artsy is an online platform of high res images of artworks from museums and galleries around the world that is accessible to anyone. I asked the founder at a tech talk in 2012, when it was first launching, if it had space for emerging artists (who didn't have representation or showed in unusual places) or if it would be reinforcing the authority of the gatekeepers that be. He said, without remorse, that it would be the later. But kudos to Victori Contemporary for meeting their bar. And to Artsy for its democratic, wide reach.
