Encouraging first-time buyers to begin their collecting journey
One of CHART's key focuses is to expand the conversation around collecting art. We want to demystify how the process works and to make it easier for first-time collectors to form new relationships with the galleries participating at CHART.
Start Collecting with CHART is a curated exhibition featuring works by established and emerging artists from across the Nordics. This year, the exhibition takes place in The Chapel at Charlottenborg, presented in collaboration with the galleries at the art fair.
All of the works in the exhibition are priced at a maximum of 20.000 DKK / 2700 EUR. We hope that by building transparency and presenting stand-out works within a specific price range, that we can expand the dialogue around collecting art and encourage more people to start.
