(PCM) FundaGeek has launched a new project of special interest to contemporary art enthusiasts and struggling artists as well. Focused on young adults, this team of Brits want to show art in a fun and convenient way, providing an alternative to mass culture and consumption. They’ve built a website designed to be displayed on mobile devices to give people the coolest art whenever they want, wherever they are.
Jan Krasnan thinks contemporary art is boring, incomprehensible or superficial. That’s why this fine art photographer embarked on, as he says, “a life-long mission to rectify the situation and increase quality in art being produced, exhibited and collected during our lives.” He went on to add, “We just can’t leave the next generations rubbish and bull*(manure) presented currently as art at even the most prestigious art fairs.”
Because many museums and galleries practice strong nepotism, there are few chances for artists who don’t fit this profile. Jan and his team admire art with vision, courage, flawless execution and that aims to be different. That is why they are actively looking for other talented emerging artists to provide more cool content. ARTgasms is there to give them the option to advance their careers and stay focused on their artistic development. It’s a very positive attitude toward artists and their art.
At present, their membership fees are mostly used to give free iPhones 5 to deserving members as part of their promotion among young people. The money raised with their FundaGeek campaign will allow them to add more social network sharing options and mobile payments in over 80 countries to allow users to unlock galleries of their interest for only 99 cents.
