it is a financial investment, others are collectors and some people think the
wall above their sofa is too naked. For whatever reason you acquire a painting or a sculpture, the best reason is: it pleases you. It gives you a special feeling or it inspires and motivates you. Art does not (only) belongs into a museum, art must be brought to the people and the internet is ideal for this intention. The online gallery art pool want's to connect art lovers and artists to advantage both of them. This - as always - won't work without commerce. But that does not mean that art at artpool is expensive because we want art to be a part of your everyday life. On the other hand we have to consider that for artists art primarily means work, and sales difficulties easily become a existential problem.
