Start-up art
Start-up art is a curatorial, art historian term designating art and artists who appropriate, adopt and repurpose the discourses, operation modes, strategies and look-and-feel of the entrepreneurial start-up culture, including but not limited to product design, business operations, financing, PR activities, advertising, marketing and sales. The art is presented often in the form of a fictious company, or actual registered company, and its various attributed activities, ranging from a webpage or a crowdfunding campaign, through outdoor advertising to actual business transactions and financial operations.
The term does not apply to artists working in traditional media, who turned their production into a business operation, under their given or stage name.
