Boundless Gallery, an online art gallery that has been in business for about seven years has closed down.
We're always sad to see innovative art services close their doors.
The Boundless Gallery home page now simply reads, "On March 1, 2010 BoundlessGallery.com and partner sites ... ceased operation....We would like to thank you for your support and hope you will continue to purchase original art."
According to a letter from Peter Gregory, Boundless Gallery's founder, that was republished on Empty Easel, Boundless Gallery decided to close because:
"[Our] business model doesn’t make sense on today’s internet...Since the “Great Recession” started, BoundlessGallery.com has been losing money. The art market as a whole is off 50 to 80%. The lack of sales have squeezed our high-end service, because there are less high-end sales . . . The combination of these factors mean that there is great stress on businesses like BoundlessGallery.com. We have decide that we don’t want to lose money for the next several years while the art market recovers...Life is short and sticking with a failed business model is for fools. We all have other things to do and more exciting horizons to search for. Thanks again for your time, trust and support over the years.”
