Online platforms for art for the living room or office aren't exactly new. They've long been bringing together artists and art enthusiasts from around the globe. Yartigo – a new art portal with a radius search – is deliberately taking a new approach:
The new Swiss art portal Yartigo, with its radius search function, has adopted a regional focus rather than a global one. Just as the trend is moving towards locally sourced food, art is also becoming more accessible, sustainable, and tangible. With Yartigo, art lovers can discover exciting artists in their immediate vicinity and art directly from the artist .
Yartigo – Buy art directly from the artist
Finding and selling art directly is both easy and difficult. You might stumble upon the perfect artwork for your dining table or office by chance at an opening or in the small gallery around the corner, or you might scour the internet's limitless possibilities, searching specifically for the right size, color, price, and style.
As an artist, you either have a dedicated gallery owner or loyal regular customers who love and collect your works.
For everyone else, the Swiss online platform Yartigo is a charming way to search for, find and sell art.
Registered users can easily publish events and special offers on the platform. With the Yartigo app , you gain access to the works of nearby artists and might make some surprising discoveries. Artists, too, can easily connect with potential customers using Yartigo, allowing them to focus on their art instead of marketing.
The first step is to register for free and upload your artwork, CV, and studio address to the platform. The virtual exhibition space connects art enthusiasts with artists of various styles from the local area.
Yartigo is not only aimed at collectors and art enthusiasts who art directly from the artist, and at painters, sculptors, art students, and photographers who want to sell their art directly. The free online platform also serves as an information portal for current art exhibitions and regional art market dates.
A chat portal creates the opportunity for personal exchange between art enthusiasts and artists. Finding art nearby could now be much easier:
As with any marketplace, whether virtual or local, supply and demand must be in balance: If enough artists and art buyers come together on the virtual online platform in each region, Yartigo can be an interesting way to revitalize the regional art market in the analog world and give (still) unknown artists a chance.

A fundamental need for every artistically creative person is likely to be the ability to live off their art.
earning money through art is essential . In fact, contrary to popular belief, many artists today can make a good living from their creative work. Nevertheless, the vast majority of freelance artists still rely on additional sources of income (e.g., teaching courses, commissions, side jobs, etc.).
Recognition as an artist often does not bring immediate financial security. Therefore, artists are often also life artists.
The opportunities to make a living from one's own art have, however, grown significantly due to the internet and social media. As an artist, however, you must be versatile and flexible to succeed. A certain degree of perseverance is also essential.
Customer relations and self-marketing are also important pillars for success as an artist .
