About Us
artrepublic is the online destination for art. We passionately believe that art should be for everyone and every home which is why we’ve been bringing exceptional art online since 1999.
We are committed to showcasing a diverse range of artists. At artrepublic, you’ll find world-famous artists such as Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin and Banksy, right through to talented new artists at the very start of their careers, with prices starting from £50. Each and every one of our artworks has been handpicked by the artrepublic team.
To provide exceptional artworks for all homes and budgets, we work directly with our ever-growing community of artists as well as a small number of carefully vetted galleries, dealers, and collectors. Increasingly, we are working with artists to produce new and exclusive editions for the artrepublic community. We also help our collectors to commission works directly from hand-picked artists.
We think buying art should be as easy as buying anything else online. We offer a straightforward bespoke framing service so your artwork arrives ready to hang on your wall and we partner with Klarna so you can spread the cost of your purchase. Our team is always ready to help, whether it’s choosing the perfect piece or advising you on some of the trends we’re seeing.
Your collection starts here!
