Terms & Conditions
Buying an original artwork from a living artist is a unique procedure. Different to buying a watch or a car, I am developing my career, which also means to protect it. There are some laws that help artists to do that. I want to raise awareness to those:
Transfer of title: Until full payment is received, the work will not be delivered and title will not pass.
Copyright: As the artist and creator of this work I retain full copyright of the work. As a buyer I grant you the license to use an image of this work for non-commercial usage.
Shipping & Insurance: As a buyer, you will pay for all shipping costs and insurance while in transit unless otherwise agreed upon. I will make sure that the works are packed and crated sufficiently to prevent any damage in transit.
Loans: It could happen that a museum or a gallery would like to exhibit this work. This would be beneficial for you because any exhibitions of your work increases its value. You agree to loan this piece for an exhibition. Of course, all costs associated with this, including insurance are being paid for by the venue.
Right of first refusal: As an artist I want to keep control over my secondary market. So if you decide to sell the work, I would like to be offered the opportunity to buy it back at a reasonable price.
By purchasing any artwork directly from Palenik Studio or on artpalenik.com , you agree to these terms.
