@rtomatic is an automated art gallery and robotic art dealer. It was created by converting a new electronic snack vending machine to dispense small artworks. Artists have been solicited to create small multiple artworks for display and distribution through @rtomatic, and it can contain twelve different artworks with fifteen multiples of each at any one time. The artworks are priced in a range of between $2 and $10 and can be purchased directly by an art consumer using the digital selector and dollar coins.
@rtomatic displays and dispenses a diverse collection of artworks in a wide range of media, including: literature, poetry, bookworks, prints, painting, sculpture, music, fashion and jewellery. The goal is to establish a network of @rtomatic galleries around the world where they will display and distribute artworks created by the local creative communities as well as popular artwork from other countries.
@rtomatic was created to smash down the elitist ivory-tower of the fine art world and to act as a direct link between artists and art lovers. @rtomatic delivers artwork to the masses. You don't have to know much about art, just what you like, and the robot art dealer does the rest. From gallery to hand with no fuss, and affordable too! ©onsume®s say ¥£$!
