The Chaos Collection: We Sell Art Like Music

By Steve Tyler

For centuries the art world has followed a strange rule.

A painting is sold once - often disappearing into a private collection - while the artist receives nothing more from its success. Meanwhile collectors and galleries trade the work for millions.

Music never worked that way.

Songs are played, shared and experienced by millions of people, while the musicians continue to earn royalties every time their work is enjoyed.

The Chaos Collection asks a simple but radical question:
What if art worked like music?

Told through a fictional narrative, the story explores a bold new way of thinking about ownership, value and creativity - one where artists are rewarded every time their work is experienced, not just the first time it is sold.

Part story, part thought experiment, The Chaos Collection challenges the traditions of the art world and imagines a future where art can be shared widely while artists continue to benefit from the value they create.

If music can reach millions while supporting the creators behind it, perhaps art can too.
