ARTUNIO MISSION:

Many professional artists are struggling to promote their work and reach their intended audience on popular social media (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok), simply because these platforms were not designed to bring us closer to art.

People who love art, on the other hand, find it difficult to engage with artistic and creative content since they are constantly overshadowed and distracted by other non-artistic content!

That's why we have been working on a new social network for over two years where artists and their work will be much closer to all of us art lovers!

Artists deserve their own social network where their work and content is properly valued and where all of us can dive into their amazing creations in an environment suited for that purpose!

With your help we have a good chance to create a solid and healthy alternative to popular social media where artists and their art is in the spotlight!

Find out why social media is not suitable for artists!

WHAT ARTISTS SAY ABOUT ARTUNIO?

“Finally a social network dedicated to the arts and artists. With the Artunio features I will be closer to my audience and able to perform my music around the world!”

“Artunio is an artistic platform, a digital space where art is the main impulse, where artists have opportunities to share their creations and at the same time interact with other artists.”

“You wouldn’t go to a theater to watch football, or a tennis court to see the opera. You wouldn’t buy sushi at a bakery or eat a burger at a coffee shop. So why do we combine everything and anything on social media? Artunio is giving artists their voice back and helping this community grow, strive, connect and share both online and offline.”

INTERVIEWS WITH ARTISTS:

During our research we interviewed multiple artists from around the world: Japan, Malaysia, Senegal, Costa Rica, Brazil, Canada, Israel, USA, Italy, Spain, Germany, Peru and more.  The problems that emerged during those interviews were different for each country and even art form. Here are some of their answers

The idea of a social network for artists was born after multiple conversations with artists, festival organizers, theatre directors and other people in the arts and culture world. Almost all of them were dissapointed about the environment on social media, how slow their audience grow and how they are overshadowed by other types of content.

“For years in a professional artistic environment as a freelancer, I was struggling with presenting and promoting myself and my art on social media. You know it – you feel it’s important to share and be out there, because this is the loudest voice WE got. But at the same time, you don’t feel comfortable to constantly fight and compromise yourself in the ocean of these cheap posts with incredible reach.” 

We assembled a capable team and started with a deep research. We conducted more than 200 interviews with artists around the world.

These are the problems they face everyday: not enough work opportunites, significant swings in monthly income, low attendance on offline events and most importantly audience building difficulties online.

To our surprise we found many detailed studies about the difficult working and financial conditions of artists around the world.

1. Study of the European Commision

2. Study of the IFACCA

3. Study of National Endowment for the Arts

With all this data we realized that a social network specifically designed to tackle these issues would help artists worldwide!

Watch why social media is not suitable for artists below:

 

We designed and tested a few demo versions of Artunio this year with multiple useful features. You can take a look at the 4 core benefits which artists wanted the most and how the new social network will work. We launched this campaing to raise funds to finish remaining features, make sure that your data is safe and make Artunio run smoothly 24/7 for you to enjoy!
