Modern Empire

In our previous post regarding emerging artist Alec Finlay, we spoke about a company called Modern Empire. Modern Empire works with up coming artists, by producing prints, i.e. cheaper versions of thier work, to help distribute their work and allow them an income. Not only is there the sales of the prints, but also Modern Empire works as semi agents for the artists, helping them put on shows for example the recent Modern Empire show at La Scatola Gallery.

Modern Empire describes itself as "Modern Empire works with emerging and established artists to create and sell limited edition prints. Our aim is to create high quality prints by artists whose work we feel should be widely disseminated and enjoyed by many people."

With artists such as Inken Reinert and Viki Bennett, there is a lot of potential with this company, and we will be looking forward to more shows with their artists in the future.
