#43 Art I Saved This Week

Hello all ❤️

I'm delighted to bring you my findings from the art world this week. I so appreciate everyone who reads along each week.

Last week, I featured MSCHF's latest stunt King Solomon's Baby, a 16-foot sculpture of a baby auctioned off piece by piece, creating a financial trustfall for all bidders. Also, the work of artist Hilary Green, who creates sculptures in wax, only to be burnt as candles, a transcendental installation.

As the new Artists Pages art market takes off, I wanted to dive into why Gelato’s product catalogue is such a game-changer for visual artists like painters, illustrators, and photographers.

One thing I love about Gelato is the variety of products they offer for artists. It’s not just prints, you can create calendars, apparel, photo books, greeting cards, and more, all showcasing your art beautifully.

Because Gelato works with local production hubs in 32 countries, your products get made closer to your customers. That means faster delivery, lower shipping costs, and better margins for you.

Simply connect your ecommerce business to link your existing products, or create new ones. Sit back whilst Gelato handles your entire fulfilment and delivery process.

Check out the Artists Pages shop and see Phoebe Dee’s limited-edition print — it’s a great example of what’s possible with Gelato, and I'm delighted to partner with Phoebe and Gelato on this.

Art Prompt

Inspired by Pedro Kouba's collection of pieces featured above, create your own collection of smaller pieces to form a larger whole. Each should feel part of a larger narrative, or your signiature language, assembled as one. For visual artists, this could take shape on a wall. For musicians, this could be a collection of shorter 30 second tracks. For photographers, a series of details from your images, brought together in a single arrangement. Play with pattern, togetherness, and structure, whilst allowing moments of uniqueness within the whole.

See you next Sunday 👋

For artists, don't forget to check out Gelato.

Thank you so much!

Imi, Founder of Artists Pages.
