Stephen Tanenbaum tells us about the art e-commerce platform UGallery

In this week’s episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, Stephen Tanenbaum, co-founder and CEO of UGallery, an art e-commerce platform that connects artists directly with collectors. Launching in 2006, as one of the first art e-commerce websites, Stephen first describes the online art market in 2006 and why he was compelled to be one of the first businesses to enter into it. Then, Stephen compares the online art market in 2006 to the online art market today. Also, he walks us through the experience of an artist getting his/her artwork on their platform and a collector buying art from the site. Additionally, Stephen talks with us about the types of both artists and collectors they are attracting to UGallery. Lastly, Stephen shares his thoughts on if the art market can handle this many online businesses or if a bubble has developed in this space.
