[ ART FOR LIVES Mission Statement ]

Art for Lives was established to create a community in which artists can support each other in an environment where the aesthetic, not the commercial, value of art is the first priority. By networking, artists can introduce each other to new audiences, building a bridge between those who make art and those who appreciate it. Art for Lives feels that a system, designed and run by artists with similar objectives and aims, is needed to develop a commercial outlet without compromising the quality of the art; a system where artists who lack the power to exhibit their art individually can support each other to reach new audiences. The specialties of each individual artist can be shared among all the artists, as well as the audience. Art for Lives also hopes to support traditional artists and craftspersons and develop their techniques to fit a modern setting.
Realizing that simply expressing themselves is not enough, and that artists must reach out to others, we hope to enhance the lives of audiences and artists by making art a part of their everyday lives.
