Introducing Foliotwist.com – A New Kind of Artist Website

It’s been a crazy day with a lot going on, but foliotwist.com is finally live and online! Since I’ve kept it a complete secret up until launch, here’s a quick (mostly visual) overview of what it does: What is foliotwist? Foliotwist is a service that combines all the tools you’ll need for displaying, promoting, and selling art online in a single website. In some ways, it’s similar to a portfolio website because you can upload artwork, describe and "tag" your images, even create new galleries—but at the same time it’s also a fully functional blogging program. We’ve made it so that you can control everything (artwork and blog posts) through a password-protected admin panel seen below. The tabs, from left to right are Overview, Site Setup, Art Manager and Writing Desk. I should also mention that every foliotwist artist gets to choose their own domain name (like www.yourname.com).

So what’s the price? What else is there? Then check out the related posts below. Canadian visual artists miss out on $75,080 in Resale Right payments. Ottawa, Tuesday, May 29th, 2012 – Three auctions held in the last two weeks have resulted in $1,501,593 in sales of artwork by 32 living Canadian artists.

Canadian visual artists miss out on $75,080 in Resale Right payments

Many people profited from these sales – everyone except the artists. The Canadian and Quebec associations of visual artists (CARFAC & RAAV) have requested that government address this discrepancy by adding the Artist’s Resale Right to the Canadian Copyright Act as has been done in 59 other countries. If Canada had an Artist’s Resale Right of 5% the artists would have received a combined total of $75,080. For example, four pieces by Ontario artist and member of the Order of Canada, David Blackwood, sold at Joyner Waddingtons on Friday, May 25th. This includes the painting Ephraim Kelloways Red Door which sold for $64,900 – more than double the estimated sale price. The Artist Resale Right (ARR) would entitle artists to receive 5% from subsequent public sales of their work through auction houses and commercial galleries.
