Consigning with
PickArt

We take your ready works out of storage and into the world.

If you have strong pieces that are not getting seen, we would love to place them where they can meet the right buyer. You consign your works with us, and we find the perfect place for each one to meet its future owner. Think short term rentals and hotel rooms, cafés, restaurants, or other welcoming spaces where people spend time.

Availability: Switzerland and the United Kingdom

How it works

Apply and upload

Create your artist account, choose Consignment, sign the agreement, and submit the works you want us to consider. Include clear photos and key details.

Curation and matching

Our team selects suitable works and matches each piece to a specific venue that fits its size, mood, and price point.

Delivery and setup

You deliver the work to the venue. Do not worry, it is all local. The host installs the piece using our guidelines. We provide a small QR label that links to a clean artwork page and checkout.

Discovery and sale

Guests notice the work, scan the QR, learn more, and buy on the spot. When a piece sells, we process the payment and send you your share. Your artist share is 60 percent of the sale price (+VAT if you are VAT registered).

Living spaces

Our ideal placements are where people live with your art for a few nights. Short term rentals (think Airbnb) and hotel rooms let guests see your work in real spaces, at eye level, in their daily routine. They get to know it, imagine it on their own wall, and often they are already in a holiday mindset. Your art can frame their trip and add new meaning to the place they are visiting. Then, they take it home.

In these placements we also use ArtBonus. It is a small nightly fee that brings attention to the art on the walls and gently nudges guests to meaningful discovery more. It also begins to pay down the artwork before a sale happens. For artists, ArtBonus comes with a simple guarantee. You receive at least 10 percent of your artist share per year for works that remain on display in eligible placements.
