How Art has Changed in 2021 Galleries adapt by going digital
The pandemic of 2020–2021 has changed many things. One industry that was forced into a change despite how resistant they may have been is the Art world. Sure, there have been galleries that have opened online viewing galleries, but it was challenging to beat the power of standing in front of a great piece of art work. That feeling of wonderment and emotional connection to a piece of Art seems muted through a digital screen.
Enter the Pandemic of 2020 when Galleries had to close their doors and Miami’s Art Basel canceled their show just days before it was supposed to be held.
This last-minute yet very real cancellation left the art world spinning. When 90% of your yearly art sales happen in one Art filled weekend, you start to open your eyes to change.
One company that opened its eyes to new possibilities and a brighter future is The Guillaume Canadian Gallery by Gallea. They adapted quickly and found a way to connect Artists with new clients all over the world by becoming an online Art hub.
