What is Fineartsharing?
Our mission
A drawing from the Hague School, an oriental monochrome engraving, a rare nineteenth century print of a historical novel - all examples of objects that you may always wanted to hang in your home or office, but never had the change or the funds to buy or even find them.
Fineartsharing fills in this space by functioning as an intermediair between lenders and borrowers of multiple sorts of art. In various countries and cultures. Our goal is to make it easier for people at home and in the office to own various art now and then. On the other hand, we want to give people who or offices that possess art but do not have the need to expose these themselves, the opportunity to lend.
On this website members can find today’s collection. Also, members can upload their artworks and offer them for loaning. Last, there is the possibility to buy and sell art.
The advantage of this concept next to a traditional art library is the fact members are able to lend and borrow art from each other, without the artworks become property of an intermediair. Next to that, sharing is more and more common in our contemporary culture, and this form of temporarily owning exceptional art is considered to be low key.
The Dream
I believe art enriches life. Being confronted with art makes you think deeper meanings. Art touches the sole and invites you to communicate with other people. Art can be one of few universally binding things in life. Music being the other one. Art is one of few topics everybody allows you to, even encourages you to have a different opinion on then others. But at the same time art can also be enjoyed together very well. Finertsharing faciltates that art is being shared and enjoyed between people and cultures. It is my dream that people around the world find each other through Fineartsharing, experience and share art and start communicating about it.
