  • wasnt sure where to put this, Im helping out at a gallery and have been approached by "global Art traders' to set up a profile, i wondered if anyone here has used them, bought through them or even like me been asked by them to set up, just wondering if they are legit / any good.

  • Sorry. Probably far too late too be of any help to you, but speaking as [......] ; don't waste your time on all these middle men services. I don't know the company you mention, but in general I am far too familiar with the shit blizzard of idiots who try to do something in the art world but always stop short of opening an actual gallery space.
    Behind a glitzy but vacuous website you usually just find a couple of rich kids with no clear purpose or strategy.

    Artnet and Artsy have some merit. Art consultancies and PR muppets should prove themselves by bringing you actual business before you let them waste your time with endless meetings etc.
