Let's first discuss about the problems

From the last 300 years mankind had seen lot of developments; technology has revolutionized every sector of our life. But still the Art world is in the 18th century. There is no development in every part of its operation. It is still following the 300 year old principles. Even today the authentication, auctioning and buying/selling of Artworks is same as old business model. This creates a lot of inconvenience for participants. The authenticity of Art work is checked with old standards; There are lot of chances that buyers may receive forged pieces. Still the Art market is not open to all talented participants. Young artists struggles a lot to get into the market.

The present Art market is insufficient to provide authenticity and quality assurance to buyers. The today's Art market benefits auctioneers more than the creators and investors. The presence of intermediaries increases the fee on products. Lack of technological implementation hinders the growth of the market.

It is admirable fact that the Art market worths billions of dollars. Even though the market has many shortcomings it has more than 63.7 billion USD annual turnover globally in 2017. The US, China and UK countries hold the larger part of the market.

According to market experts, the Art industry is predicted to reach $2.7 trillion market in next 10 years with $620 billion annual transactions. The online Art market is increasing exponentially. With every year 10 percent rise, the online market reached $5.4 billion in 2017.

Now thanks to ArtPro project which is committed to solve the problems of Art industry.
