Business Overview

Since the establishment of the Artists Guild in 2009, we have tried to share the personal equipment owned by each artist in order to create a system that is widely open to the public. However, complicated problems such as equipment storage, warranty, rental fees, shipping fees, and shipping operations have intertwined, and it has not yet been realized in a proper form. This term, we will focus on sharing personal equipment to build a wide open community. They come up with ideas for systems, build infrastructure and run tests.

Profile

The Artists Guild "Art support system for artist by artist" was founded in 2009. Its members are made up of professionally working artists and it has created a pioneering arts support system aimed at improving the working environment for artists. By co-owning the equipment necessary for production and exhibition, AG can reduce the cost burden of production and presentation for artists and ensure a steady stream of high-quality works of art. By actively conducting social experiments, various problems in artistic activities are improved from the root.
