The NewIrishArt.com website was launched on March 28th, 2000. It has always operated as an open platform for the presentation and promotion of visual art of and about Ireland.

The purpose of the site is to increase the enjoyment of and the participation in visual arts in Ireland. We welcome and support professional, amateur and emerging artists equally.

About 300 artists show their artwork on NewIrishArt.com and several thousand visitors come to the website every month to enjoy the presentations. The leading Internet search engines consistently rank NewIrishArt.com at the top.

For a comprehensive view of New Irish Art, there is no better place to start and to present your own work there is no better place to stay.

We are delighted with the continued support of so many art lovers and artists alike and wish to extend our own thanks to all of you. Our testimonial section shows a selection of comments from our audience and contributors.

 

 

Buying Work from New Irish Art dot Com

 

We always recommend that viewers get to see work before committing to buy. Images presented on the web are subjected to many distorting factors that could make the presentation differ widely from the actual work.

We encourage art lovers to purchase from a trusted gallery or from the artist direct. Gallery owners and artist agents play a crucial role in maintaining the quality of work and in bringing visual art out into public view.

It is not possible for online presentations to replace the role of the local gallery. For that reason alone, supporting your local gallery is a right choice.

There is a contact form in every current artist Gallery, after the Biographical section. This should be used to establish direct contact with the artist.

 

Privacy, Data Protection and Copyright

 

Many websites are built from scratch with methods to quickly capture and retain personal information about their members. New Irish Art does not collect any unnecessary data from its artists nor do our visitors have to register. In the ever blooming cloud of social networks on the Internet, data is best kept private if it is to be kept safe. Our approach to this area is that less is better, we will never need your personal data to show your work or to let you see work.

New Irish Art does not plant 'cookies' on visitor's machines and, though it is common practice elsewhere, we do not collect personal data from any of our visitors.

The copyright of the work shown on the New Irish Art website is protected by international law. The artwork displayed on the site may NOT BE USED by ANYONE without written consent from the copyright owners.

Copyright Law protects the original work done by those who produce these presentations, we would have no hesitation in persuing any person suspected of such an infringement through the courts.

 

The Design of New Irish Art dot Com

 

The New Irish Art website has changed many times throughout its years of operation. It will continue changing as our artists and our audience deserves and as technology allows. Most important is the presentation of the artwork and of the artists' information.

In every step of the website's evolution changes have been made for better use of the screen, faster delivery of images and for continuous improvement of the 'viewing experience'.

The World Wide Web and computer screens are not usually the best way to view original artwork. That doesn't mean that viewing art via this medium should be boring and restricted. We believe that the media should be exploited to the fullest so that each viewer gets the best enjoyment possible.
