Artwork Network

In 2004, banker Alan Kircher noticed a problem – artists were suffering from severe disorganization. Initially conceived as a ‘Business Art Rotation’ company in Denver, Colorado, the mission was to help artists get their work out of the studio and into the community. Artwork Network continued to grow, opening a Fine Art Gallery in 2007. The industry continued to change, but the old problems were still there: no transparency, disorganization, and uncertainty. It was difficult for the average person to understand the art market. We realized the innovation we sought was inhibited by our brick and mortar limitations. After more than a decade (and a few shocked expressions), we decided to close the Gallery to focus entirely on the Art Management platform. We took our 10+ years of behind-the-scenes experience to create a new kind of art management. By focusing on providing transparency, sales trends, data, and educational information, we pushed for industry-disrupting changes. We are radically reshaping how we think about artwork – and we’re just getting started.
