Trust Art
About

At a time when the corporations we've trusted with our capital, and perhaps too much of our faith, are failing us, comes a moment where we ask you to Trust Art.

Art is the one commodity that’s always fulfilled and enriched our societies creatively, culturally, and spiritually. Art explains us, makes us ask the tough questions and, in the end, art improves us.

In the spirit of the renewal art brings to our lives, we ask not for a bailout, but simply for you to ponder a more playful question:

Can financial and social capital elevate art projects that are designed to elevate society?

Trust Art consists of 10 emerging artists who’ve all created fantastic blueprints for projects that can be realized within one year or less. The projects on the table are steeped in social, environmental, cultural, and economic value. When executed, they’ll live in big media, engaging large numbers of people.

Investors will take a share in one or many Trust Art projects, while also spreading word of Trust Art in their social circle. At the end of the year, each art piece is auctioned, and investors split the proceeds with the artist. Inevitably, art will be created that otherwise wouldn’t exist, you will feel good, and culture will have been renewed.
