Most art never reaches a wall.

The hard part of being an artist isn't making the work. It's finding anyone to sell it to. Galleries take a small number of people and the rest never get through the door — not on merit, on access. So the work stacks up in studios.

Meanwhile the places that hang art constantly — hotels, restaurants, offices, developers staging a building, event spaces dressing a room for a week — have almost no way to buy original work. They default to mass-produced prints because prints are easy to source and originals are not.

ABB Collective exists to connect those two facts. We sell to collectors the traditional way, and we sell into the rooms galleries were never going to serve. More routes to a buyer means more work sold, which is the only thing that actually helps an artist.

Founder note · Charles Black

I started ABB Collective because making the work was never the hard part. Selling it was.

Galleries can only take so many people, and everyone else is left selling alone into a void. But art gets hung in far more places than galleries — hotels, restaurants, lobbies, staged apartments, events — and almost none of them have a good way to buy an original.

That gap is the whole business. The more routes we open, the more artists get paid for what they make.
