Art! Vancouver to Support the ArtBomb Project, an Online Movement to Democratize Art

    VANCOUVER, BC, November 13, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Organizers of the 2015 Art! Vancouver international art exhibition have welcomed the cutting-edge Canadian-based online auction, ArtBomb, to their team of partners.

The ArtBomb project is a curated online auction featuring some of Canada's most talked about artists. The project first began in Toronto, and in three years has expanded to several major cities across Canada, including Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary, and Yellowknife, in addition to the globally recognized cultural metropolis, New York City.

In addition to exhibiting a beautiful collection of carefully curated Canadian artwork, ArtBomb as well boasts a very simple, effective, and obtainable means of delivery. ArtBomb is the only service in the world that brings a piece of the art directly to an individual's email inbox on a daily basis. With such a convenient means for discovering and purchasing original Canadian artwork, the service provides a solution for art enthusiasts that lack the time to visit traditional art galleries or sift through thousands of images online, yet still wish to own beautiful and original artwork for themselves.

Carrie Shibinsky, founder of ArtBomb, believes the online auction to be a sign of things to come for the art world; especially in regards to obtaining and connecting with original and unique artwork.

"For two years, ArtBomb has been at the forefront of a new and growing movement to democratize art," says Shibinsky, "gone are the days when you have to venture into high-priced - and intimidating - galleries to get your art fix. We bring it direct to you - we do the leg-work for busy prospective buyers, exposing them to works they might not otherwise find, and allowing them to tap into the art world without ever leaving their home."

ArtBomb has caught the attention of many, including organizer of Art! Vancouver who view the service as extremely beneficial for Canadian artists.

"It makes it easier for artists to put more time and focus into their work, as exposure is much less of a concern since ArtBomb sends their artwork straight into the inboxes of thousands of potential buyers," says Lisa Wolfin, founder of Art! Vancouver.

ArtBomb and the upcoming Art! Vancouver fine arts exhibition illustrate a bright future for the Canadian arts scene, as both offer an internationally recognized platform to showcase original Canadian artwork and provide an opportunity for artists to connect with major players within the global fine art industry.

"It's a partnership that we greatly value," Says Wolfin, "we both share a common goal - to give Canadian artists and galleries an opportunity to connect with a larger community of art professionals and to showcase to the international art market the beautiful and potential that fills the Canadian art scene."
