I like it, and will definitely come back to see new works over time. I occassionally buy art and enjoy browsing the well-known auction sites for thrills (you never know if the next lot is a masterpiece or overpriced trash). A few suggestions: 1) Structured artist bios. Right now it's all over the place: some of your artists have a single paragraph, some a wall of text listing everything they ever did and attended. As a buyer, I'm looking for the usual reassuring signals: this artist went to school X, exhibited at gallery Y that I've heard about, and their work was purchased for collection Z that sounds fancy... Maybe make it easier for artists to highlight those and even search by those criteria? 2) Generated preview images showing size of the work next to a human. I think Sotheby's uses these on their site. It's super helpful to be able to see the work on a simulated gallery wall next to a person. If you need a beta tester, I'd be happy to help. My email is in the profile. |
