About Artsy Stock
Artsy is a global platform for collecting and discovering art. The Artsy platform gives users the ability to search for art, add it to their personal collection, make bids on live art auctions, and purchase art directly on the platform from galleries and private collectors. Artsy's platform is built on a classification system named the Art Genome Project that categorizes artwork using over 1,000 characteristics including historical movement, subject matter, and formal qualities. Artsy also hosts Artsy partners with international galleries, auction houses, art fairs, and museums to create an online art marketplace. As of April 2022, the company partners with over 3,400 galleries worldwide and says it offers over 1 million pieces of artwork from over 100,000 artists across 100+ countries. Artsy aims to empower a global audience to learn about, discover, and collect art.
Artsy’s investors include Larry Gagosian, owner of Gagosian Gallery; Wendi Murdoch, collector and film producer; Jack Dorsey, Thrive Capital, and Avenir Growth Capital. Launched in 2012, Artsy is headquartered in New York City with offices in London, Berlin, Hong Kong, and Los Angeles.
