Part of the Solution
African artists have faced exploitation for far too long. It's time for change.
In many parts of the world, including the United States, freedom, justice, and equality are often compromised.
Africans have a deep-rooted history in America, dating back to 1619. They were predominantly enslaved and later had limited rights. In fact, American history is deeply intertwined with Black history.
To counteract historical injustices, we've established an all-African staff and collaborate directly with African artists from The Motherland. Wherever we are, we purchase artwork at fair prices, often set by the artists themselves. We ensure timely and fair payment, serve everyone with the same respect and integrity, whether they are artists or our clients.
Our artists are thrilled to know their paintings are cherished in homes far away, sometimes thousands of miles. You made this possible! Thank you!
