Platform Overview
Saatchi Art is the world's leading online art gallery, showcasing original work by artists from over 100 countries.
How It Works for Artists
Artists upload their artworks, inputting dimensions, weight, and packaging info. When an item sells, Saatchi Art emails a prepaid shipping label to the artist. A courier (like DHL or FedEx) picks up the package directly from the artist’s studio. Once the 14-day return window closes, the artist is paid.
