In an era where culture is either locked away in storage or lost in algorithmic oblivion, accessioning is our answer to permanence. Unlike traditional museums, we don’t accession based on market value or institutional validation—we accession based on cultural impact, artistic vision, and intellectual urgency.
Our goal is to preserve, amplify, and sustain those shaping culture today, ensuring their work isn’t erased by time or buried by exploitative platforms. Accessioning is not about gatekeeping—it’s about elevating work that deserves to be seen, studied, and engaged with outside the cycles of trends and market.
We reject the exclusivity of the traditional art world while upholding standards that ensure accessioning remains meaningful. Instead of serving collectors, institutions, or art market speculation, our process is guided by a commitment to cultural integrity, aesthetic and conceptual depth, and artistic urgency.
Cultural Impact: Does this work challenge, expand, or redefine the discourse?
Aesthetic & Conceptual Strength: Does it introduce new forms, languages, or ideas?
Social & Ethical Responsibility: Does it contribute to collective liberation, critique oppressive structures, or imagine radical futures?
Sustainability & Legacy: Will this work matter beyond the present moment?
Community Engagement & Influence: Is it shaping or inspiring new cultural ecosystems?
Independent/Outsider Merit: Is this work being created outside of, or in defiance of, market-driven or institutional pressures?
Accessioning is open to artists, collectors, organizations, and art professionals whose work and contributions align with our curatorial vision and values. Selection is based not on market prestige, but on cultural significance, intellectual depth, and the potential to shape the future of artistic discourse.
