An online art gallery is an online version of a contemporary art gallery. == Purpose and type == An online art gallery is a website that display artworks. Usually, the online gallery is run as a business, with the purpose of displaying the artwork being to promote it to potential buyers. Other variations include: * An online art market for collectors also known as an online secondary market. * A contemporary art gallery displaying art work from their current, future, or past exhibitions, most often to promote the exhibitions, rather than with a view to selling the work via the website . * An artist hosting their own gallery, either on their own website or on other websites. This approach is usually adopted with a view to increasing the percentage of the sale price the artist themselves receive. * A website which conducts art competitions and art contests for artists to compete against other artists in order to gain recognition for their art and artistic talents. This is the equivalent of a "bricks & mortar" art gallery or art organization conducting a juried competition and having a group exhibition of the winners, but this event is being conducted online (e.g. http://www.lightspacetime.com ). * There are a number of online galleries that represent many artists working in different media and genre. The artist either pays a monthly fee or agrees to a commission paid when the work is sold. These are usually non-exclusive and are therefore a risk free opportunity for the artist to sell their work worldwide. They can be found by using search terms such as "original art" or "online art gallery". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Online art gallery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
