Ventero Open Press Fine Art has a program especially designed for the active art collector/collectors who wish to start purchasing work from their favorite artist and/or artists who just recently emerging on to the art scene.
This is a brand new idea that we are introducing to the art world.
A concept that works in a very simple way:
Collectors are asked to donate a minimum of $1000.00 dollars or more to the Ventero Open Press "Patrons Program" and in turn the collectors can use their donation amount ($1000.00 or more) to acquire prints from our body of artists. In joining the Patrons Program you will receive a credit for the purchase of artwork in the amount that was donated.
This program allows artists to connect to collectors, giving patrons a direct connection to their favorite artists, and in turn artists, for the first time have a chance to meet new collectors.
