Street Art
The Saatchi Art Gallery caters to artists of all kinds, and
evidence of this exists in its commitment to the work of street
artists. The gallery accepts work from a wide range of
non-traditional artists, such as tattoo and graffiti artists,
mural painters, performers, and others who discover unknown or
unrecognized pieces. Saatchi allows these artists to upload
their work in the form of photos or even videos—any or all the
methods that capture the true essence of the meaning and
conceptualization they would like to convey. The use of the
video-upload feature is particularly convenient for performing
artists, who are also encouraged to promote their work on the
Saatchi Gallery Site. This features is open even to street
dancers, many of whom the gallery recognises as having attained
a remarkable level of proficiency at their art despite the lack
of formal training.
Artists ready to upload are encouraged to register on the site
for a free membership, which gives them all the privileges that
Saatchi members worldwide possess. However, those who prefer to
are also allowed to register as visitors and still gain the
benefit of having their works displayed on the international
artistic website. When art files are uploaded, visitors to the
site are able not only to view the works, but also to select
their ten favourites, which are ultimately showcased in a
special area on the site. The exposure that this Saatchi Gallery
facility affords to young street artists is immeasurable, as the
gallery makes these works available to millions of viewers
around the world. This considerably broadens the artistic scope
of these street artists and ultimately brightens their
prospects.
