why does art sumo work with a single piece of art a month? [from the site <a href="http://www.artsumo.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.artsumo.com/</a> it seems that they send you a picture of one piece of art per month, which you can buy]<p>that seems like it's modeled on companies that sell socks, or nappies (diapers), or the like. but you (i? everyone?) don't buy art like that. it's not a regular purchase, and you need to look through a lot of examples to find something you really like.<p>am i completely mis-understanding how people buy art in the states? (i'm not bullshitting here - about half the art we own was bought over the internet, most recently from <a href="http://puntoarte.cl/" rel="nofollow">http://puntoarte.cl/</a>, so i would have thought i am - apart from location - the target demographic).<p>maybe it's more like small impulse buys? what prices?<p>(incidentally, i don't claim puntoarte is a great place for art - i think you could improve it significantly with curation - but that doesn't alter the basic argument, i hope)
