CuratorSpace launches new 0% commission art selling platform

CuratorSpace is excited to introduce the launch of Exhibtd, a new online platform that connects artists and buyers, offering a fair and transparent way to buy and sell original art without commission or listing fees.

Exhibtd allows artists to sell original artworks, as well as limited edition prints and reproductions, without paying any commission or listing fees. This means that unlike many galleries and commercial platforms, Exhibtd ensures that 100% of each sale goes directly to the artist. This approach supports artists' ongoing creativity and contributes to a fairer, more sustainable art community.

"We created Exhibtd because we wanted to help buyers find original art and limited editions and to support artists to develop a more sustainable practice," said Louise Atkinson, Founder and Director of CuratorSpace.

"We believe artists deserve to be fully compensated for their talent and hard work, so we charge 0% commission, meaning that buyers pay less too."

Artists already part of the CuratorSpace community are embracing the new platform.

"For an embroidery artist like myself, finding the right audience for my work is essential. CuratorSpace has always been a reliable place for finding exhibition and commission opportunities, but with the addition of Exhibtd, it's become a complete package," said Rowan Bridgwood, an early Exhibtd user.

"I can connect directly with buyers who truly appreciate the hours of work that go into each piece, and the fact that I retain all the revenue from my sales is transformative for my practice. It moves the focus from transactions back to the art itself."

A selection of Rowan's work (pictured above) can be found on Exhibtd here.

We're currently running a limited launch and applications are open to artists based in England, Scotland and Wales, with a CuratorSpace Artist or Artist Plus subscription.

Apply now at exhibtd.curatorspace.com. We review applications regularly to ensure a range of prices and mediums on the site.

Not another listings site

CuratorSpace isn't another listings website; it's a place where curators and organisers can use custom online forms to allow artists to apply to their opportunity. It also allows you to see and manage all submissions made to your opportunity on the website, and to contact contributors directly.
