Created in the winter of 2020 by the french artist Margaux Derhy, Le Cercle de l'Art was designed to establish a privileged relationship between collector and artist.
Le Cercle de l'Art allows collectors to become part of an artist's privileged circle, to acquire his or her works in monthly instalments over a year, to offer access to the intimacy of his or her work, and to benefit from very special attentions reserved exclusively for collector members.
Thanks to this 21st century patronage, the artist can perpetuate her creation through monthly payments.
Selected with 19 other artists for the Season 0 of this beautiful project, I propose since September 13, 2021, thirteen works in various prices and formats, available for sale during one month only and payable in 12 monthly payments over one year.
