Why You Should Buy Art

Why You Should Buy Art



Today in class, we looked a piece of art called, "Why You Should Buy Art" by William Powhida. I thought that this was a very interesting piece. This piece is a sheet of notebook paper that lists 26 different reasons why a person should purchase art. I found it to be very interesting because many of the reasons are very creative and ones that most people would not think of. It is also very interesting how most words are written with a black outlining, making the words white. There are several words, however, that are written in a different color to make the word pop. This piece can be bought from the website http://www.20x200.com/ for a price between $20 and $200. I also found this website to be very interesting. The products on this site are exclusive, limited-edition pieces of art. They are also museum quality and come with a certificate of authenticity that is signed by the artist. The proceeds made from this site directly support the artists.
