For galleries, museums, foundations & estates
Put your collection on the record.
Join a trust-first index of African and diaspora art. Reach serious collectors, receive qualified inquiries, and let verified provenance do the talking.
Why join
A record that works as hard as you do.
Collectors reach you directly about specific works — no noise, no middle layer. You agree terms on or off the platform.
A verified chain of ownership, shown beside every work. Trust is the product, and it travels with your listings.
Appear in search, the homepage, curated collections and online viewing rooms — across four languages.
Publish once. Your works flow into exhibitions, fairs, editorial features and the directory automatically.
Set what's published, priced or indexed-only. Confirm representations. Nothing goes public without you.
Take an inquiry to a tracked deal — offer, payment, shipping and documents — with optional escrow.

How it works
From application to indexed in four steps.
Tell us about your organisation and the collection you hold.
Submit identity, provenance and rights evidence. Provisional review takes about 5 working days; full Verified status typically takes 5–10.
Add your catalogue. Works appear as Provisional, then go live once verified.
Collectors find, follow and inquire. Take the best ones to a tracked deal.
Common questions
- What does it cost?
- Founding members lock in a preferential rate for the first fifty organisations. Standard pricing applies afterwards; verification review itself is part of membership.
- Does claiming or joining grant selling rights?
- Verification tiers are what gate selling. Sale-enabled organisations can transact on the platform; Verified organisations can publish and receive inquiries but settle off-platform.
- How long does verification take?
- Provisional status usually takes about 5 working days once your evidence is complete. Full Verified status typically takes 5–10 working days, and Sale-enabled 10–15 — reference and bank checks are the long pole. You can build your profile and prepare drafts while you wait.
- Can we control what's shown?
- Yes. You decide what's published, priced, or indexed-only, and you confirm any representation before it appears publicly.
