NEW YORK, NY.- romulus.art, a visionary new platform for art collectors, recently announced its Spring 2023 launch. This comprehensive platform is designed to radically reshape the art collecting experience, and is the brainchild of Rachel Cole, art advisor and 2022 recipient of the Forbes 30 Under 30 award.

romulus.art is an online platform that addresses the inequities in the art world by bringing greater inclusivity, diversity, and transparency to art collecting. The first of its kind, it is both an insider's guide and a concierge service that handles the logistics of buying and selling art. By design, romulus.art targets and connects collectors of all stages and levels of expertise, from any variety of professional or personal background.

Company founder, Rachel Cole remarks, “As a young, Mexican-American Jewish woman in the art world, my approach to romulus.art is deeply influenced by my own experiences. I see the future of art as an increasingly diverse and broad-reaching landscape, so I am energized by the idea of providing a comprehensive hub for art collectors. romulus.art will keep collectors informed and supported, no matter how much or how little they know about art or building a collection. This project invites new perspectives into the art world and helps bring works by artists of all walks, including women, BIPOC and LGBTQ + artists, into the hands of a more diverse array of art-lovers. It’s a very exciting prospect.”
