Common Tasks

Step-by-step guides for the most common things you might want to do.

How to sign up for an account

  1. Open the Account menu in the navigation and choose Sign Up.
  2. Enter your first name, last name, email address, and password — or use the "Continue with Google" option to skip the password. There is no separate username; your email address is how you log in.
  3. After signing up, an artist profile is automatically created for you using your name and email. If your email matches an existing artist record you were added under, the link is made for you automatically.
  4. If you were added under a different email, visit your artist edit page after signing in — you will see a link to claim your existing record. See "Linking your account to an existing artist profile" in the how-to guides for full details.

Linking your account to an existing artist profile

  1. There are three cases — figure out which one applies, then follow the matching steps.
  2. Case 1 — Same email: You were already in the system and you signed up using the same email address that is on your artist record. The system linked your account automatically. No extra steps needed — just fill in your profile.
  3. Case 2 — Different email: You were already in the system but you signed up with a different email than the one on your existing artist record. Sign in, then go to your artist edit page — you will see a link to "link it to your account here". Click it, enter the OLD email address that is on your existing record, and submit. Your blank auto-created profile is replaced with your existing record, preserving all artworks and show history. The artist email is left unchanged (it is your public contact address and may intentionally differ from your login email — you can update it from the edit page if needed).
  4. Case 3 — New to the system: You have no existing record. A new artist profile was created for you automatically when you signed up. Go to your artist profile and fill in your bio, statement, website, Instagram, and upload a profile photo.
  5. Not sure which case applies? Email info@120710.art — a staff member can look up your record, tell you which email is on it, and link it for you if needed.

How to submit artwork to an open call show

  1. First, create an artist account — see "How to sign up for an account" above.
  2. Once you are signed in as an artist, return to this help section for detailed submission instructions that will appear here.

How to buy a piece of artwork

  1. Find the artwork you are interested in — browse Shows or Artists from the navigation, or ask the gallery for a direct link.
  2. On the artwork detail page, check the price listed. If it shows "Not For Sale" the work is unavailable. If it shows "Price on Request" or "Best Offer", the artist will discuss pricing with you directly.
  3. Click the Inquire button on the artwork page.
  4. Fill in your name, email address, and a message to the artist — for example, express your interest and ask any questions about the work.
  5. Submit the form. Your message is sent directly to the artist with your email address included so they can reply to you.
  6. The artist will follow up with you by email to arrange payment and delivery or pickup.
