Artmajeur is an online art gallery based in Montpellier, France and founded in 2000.[1] It allows artists to present original paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographies, and prints.[2]

History

Artmajeur was founded in 2000 by Samuel Charmetant and Yann Sarazin, then computer sciences students in University of Montpellier.[3] The platform maintains an offline presence in the form of a quarterly Art Magazine,[4] and by participating to international art fairs.[5][6][7]
