Although all ArtCloud customers have different needs for their Artist Consignment Terms depending on various factors, here are a few quick examples for Default Artist Consignment Terms:

"The Artwork(s) listed above are fully insured under Gallery’s master insurance policy while in Gallery’s possession.  All consigned Artwork remains the property of Consignor and shall be returned upon request. In the event of a sale, the Gallery shall receive a commission of 50% of the sale price. Consignor agrees to possible discount — or incurred ancillary fees — of up to 20% from above retail price, to be split evenly with the Gallery."

"Gallery will act as your exclusive agent for the exhibition and sale of artwork within [time span]. All costs associated with shipping art are your responsibility. The Gallery shall insure all consigned artwork at all times while in the Gallery's possession for no less than 50% of it's agreed upon retail price. Payments are only made to artists based on funds received by the Gallery."

DISCLAIMER: ArtCloud is not advertising nor advising the use of the default terms listed above. We recommend working with your own legal team to determine your own needs for your business.
