&Q Option 2: What is Archive Art?
"One World Art" is a project consisting of a number of business systems.
Customers can browse through internationally renouned artworks in a wide range of media selections and we sell or rent art prints made using a revolutionary new high quality printing system.

Our prints are archival 6 colour editions, much sharper and truer to the original artwork's colour than conventional offset prints or photo reproductions. In addition to their initial high quality, our state of the art reproductions are extremely durable, resisting fading and colour shifts for 200 years or more.

The markets that archive art are targeting include offices, hospitals and restaurants as well as to the general public through workshop sales events. We have approached several Japanese restaurant chains, and have received a positive response.

We will be heavily promoting our OWA website and expect high volumes of traffic. Any customer anywhere in the world with internet access will be able to view and order a print of your work.

The benefit of this process for the artist is, we sell as many archive prints as possible made from the original image which remains in possession of the artist, and depending on our Archive Art sales, the original image can be worth a much greater value for the artist. As the commission for the image remains 20% of the wholesale price, the percentage will increase accordingly.

For example: If we can sell 10 archive prints from one original image, the artist makes 20% of the wholesale price times 10 from the same 1 image. On the other hand, for the art lover's benefit, they purchase the outstanding image on condition of a low price compared with the original's value. In addition to this, remember it is not necessary for the artist to part with the original art.

Please contact ICO HQ for the necessary details for submitting images for Archive art.
