Curators
Offer Alternative Insights.
- Share the human story of the artists in your project.
- Have your audience follow decisions and ideas of behind-the-scenes activities.
- Grant access to view works-in-progress in artists studios.
- Maintain an online project diary from initial concept to exhibition completion.
Tell The Back Story
- Work with us to reveal the dynamics and that drama behind curating art exhibitions which is normally lost to viewers of the actual show.
- Facilitate interest in and exposure of your artists by encouraging them to periodically post what's on their mind during works-in-progress.
- Capture attention and generate audience interest long before scheduled opening. Attract returning visits and word being spread on your project well in advance with open in-app communications between artist and organizer.
- Receive great feedback and reviews.
- Witness the satisfaction of your artists (and their buyers) as the art is snapped-up.
- Earn well-deserved commission on the sale of artworks in your project.

Artists
Take the Alternative Path.
1. Get Invited!
Contact a curator
Suggest to your curator colleagues that they prepare their next exhibition project on AlternativeArt and invite you to participate.
2. So what´s your proposal?
Say what you're thinking of doing for this show
After you´ve accepted an invitation to participate, give a little informal background on what on what you´re planning to
work on why it interests you and what outcome you expect to achieve.
Respond to comments of other artists and viewers to your plans for the show.
3. Show work-in-progress
Develop outside interest in your work
Use the opportunity of the time building-up to the show to work with the curator and capture the interest of buyers in your art. Talk about issues you´re having with the work and open a window onto the world of your life as an artist. Give the human story behind the artwork and document as it progresses from beginning to completion.
4. Exhibit finished work
You´ve merited the enthusiasm and buzz around your piece
They´ve followed you on your journey from the initial ideas through the difficulties of making the work right up to now it´s finally finished. Who buys it in the end will have the advantages of owning the artwork and also the artist´s story of how it came into being. Expect new commissions and a growing interest in your artistic output.
