as www.artsy.net also sell artwork online, but generally only through a gallery, so the former collector need to find a gallery willing to put your work online and sell for a commission – not an easy task for an emerging artist’s works. There are several of these sites online... as a last resort, your collector can also try Facebook Marketplace and/ or EBay. The last option is my favorite: donate the artwork. Your collector can also donate the work to a museum and/or university or college. While this is a donation, rather than sale, it does generally have generous tax write-off benefits, as usually one can deduct the full current value of the work from income taxes, but make sure to advise your collector to consult with their tax
professional to find the most current laws. This has the benefit of (a) getting them a tax write-off, and (b) getting your work into a small museum or a university’s collection. The smaller the college the more likely they’d be in accepting a donation of artwork for their permanent collection. This latter one actually happened to me, and one of my super early (1970s) series of works in which I use the poor enslaved island of Cuba as the focus of the works (titled imaginatively as “The Cuba Series”) ended up a few years ago in the collection of American University thanks to a generous collector from New Jersey who donated the work – which he acquired in 1978 or so – to the University. More recently, a similar scenario happened, where another collector (this time a former school mate of
“Isla Llorona”, oil on board, c.1978 In the collection of Queens University, Charlotte, NC
mine who had acquired a work from the same Cuba series when I was a student at the School of Art at the University of Washington in Seattle between 1977-1981) passed away and her son approached me for advice on how to donate the work to his mother’s undergraduate alma mater. As a result, the work is now in the permanent collection of Queens University of Charlotte in North Carolina!
