Rise Art is the online social community for emerging artists. We provide artists with free tools to build and share their artwork with collectors and curators around the globe. Build and connect with people interested in your work, invite followers to your upcoming events, and expand your network by uploading your profile. Get started here.
Rise Art also helps talented artists get discovered. Our community and Board of Curators select the artists who's works appear for sale on the site. Rise Art Shortlisted Artists,have new works commissioned, showcased and sold on Rise Art and with our offline partners.
Any artist can create a profile and submit their artwork on Rise Art free of charge. To get started click on the Submit button at the top of any page. After registering, you can upload artwork and build your profile page. We recommend submitting between 5-10 strong pieces from your portfolio.
Artists work are ranked on the site based on the votes that their artwork receives from the community. To help promote your profile and get collectors to see your work, we encourage you to actively share your portfoilio. We have added sharing tools including sharing via facebook and twitter, and recommend that you encourage your friends to vote for your work on the site.
Rise Art allows anyone to vote and comment on all artwork submitted across the site. On a regular basis our team combs through the site and selects a cross section of the artwork that has received the highest votes across the site. We share the artists entire profile with our Board of Curators, who choose the artists that become Rise Art Select Artists.
Rise Arts Board of Curators shortlist artists on a rolling basis. As such, artists work is always up for consideration, regardless of the duration that your art has been live on the site. You can help your chance of being considered by the Board of Curators by completing your profile and uploading a photo, building your community, sharing your work across the site, and inviting people to vote for your work. If your work is shortlisted on the site to be shown to our Board of Curators, we'll email you in advance to let you know.
Shortlisted Artists receive endorsement, visibility and patronage for their practice. When an artist is selected by Rise Arts Board of Curators to become a Select Artist, they work directly with Rise Art to produce editions of their artwork. Rise Art will work with the artist to support existing work, or commission the artists to produce new work exclusively for Rise Art. The artist receives promotion across the Rise Art website and with offline partners, and earns a money each time their work is sold by Rise Art.
Rise Art works directly with some of our Artists to produce limited editions of their work. We are committed to representing the artist's work the best way possible in a medium that enables collectors at all stages to take part. We regularly commission artists to produce new works, or will work within an artist's archive of material. The edition runs that Rise Art produces are highly collectable, with runs averaging 25 prints per edition. We work across mediums including Screen Print, C-Type and Digital. Rise Art will also offer other unique works from an artist's collection for sale across the site.
Rise Art pays artists for their work. If we commission editions from you, your'll receive an upfront award for the work, and commissions on the sale. If we sell your original artwork, you'll receive at least 60% of the proceeds from sales! Many of our Select Artists will earn thousands by working with Rise Art.
No. Unlike other artist submission and competition platforms, we never charge artists to submit their work to the platform. Rise Art is a free platform for you to display your work.
