About Artout

ARTOUT is an experimental project in which both artists and clients are equal participants: they share their time and personality and together create an ARTOUT exchange commodity event.

ARTOUT is about testing conventional boundaries of art. It is also about the art economy defining identities of its actors. Its about art and artists as a form of merchandise, about ramification of human relations, about everyday life as performance of the free market system. Finally, it is way to get to know about art.

ARTOUT is an independent art project created, developed and funded exclusively by the artists with the sole purpose of exploring new forms and meanings of human/artistic interaction in the hyper-capitalist society.

ARTOUT is also a registered trade mark and a corporate entity.

ARTOUT donates 1% of its benefits to the Needy Artists Foundation and 3% - to the PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).

  • Mission Statement

    The law of the capitalist market with its emphasis on the ever-narrowing specialization of labor and maximization of profits invites artists to reinvent themselves over and over in order to escape the market-imposed limits to their identity. This limited identity confines artists to seek satisfying the ruling class demand for the special commodity fetish known as Art and reproduce institutionally-defined ideology of culture. In both cases the producer and the consumer of Art are limited in (...)
