HANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST in the Art Renewal Center and ARC Approved™ Atelier and School listing. In order to bring real art back into the mainstream of society it is imperative that young artists are properly trained. It is a well-known fact that few, if any, of the college and university art departments of today are able to provide the kind of genuine art instruction sought by ever-growing numbers of students and aspiring young artists. The Art Renewal Center recognizes the importance of providing information on ateliers, academies, schools and private instructors dedicated to the teaching of art in the traditional manner. One of the ARC's main objectives is to ensure that ARC Approved™ Ateliers and Schools continue to grow and prosper as the future of the fine arts is in the hands of the artists and teachers of today and of the next generation. The ARC has awarded well over $50,000 in Scholarships to students attending approved programs, and to our delight many of the already Approved Schools have reported a sizeable increase, as much as 400 percent in their enrollment since their listing appeared on the ARC website. The ARC is currently tracking 370,000,000 hits per year from 5,500,000 estimated visitors and growing at a very rapid rate.
We know that ARC is playing a major, perhaps decisive role in aiding all of our ARC Approved™ ateliers and schools to increased success by way of
- Increased Enrollments.
- Annual Scholarship competitions.
- Annual ARC Salon™ competitions.
- Gallery introductions.
- Philosophy: ARC has become a major resource that helps to place "Living Realism" into a philosophical and historical context by which kindred spirits can find affirmation for their thoughts, feelings and beliefs about realism vs. modern art, and along with millions of other art lovers, feel part of a growing dynamic movement and force, which will be the inevitable successor to the current art establishment.
- More exposure than any other resource anywhere currently enjoying 6,000,000 visitors per year, who are targeted art lovers, educators, art historians, curators, artists and gallery owners. A visitor rate greater than the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan, America's largest museum.
- Over 51,000 images of the greatest works of art in history by the 4600+ most important artists.
- High-resolution images available nowhere else on the Internet for study, research and analysis.
- Living Master's Gallery, where the finest living realist art may be enjoyed. This has already proven an immense aid in careers.
- Technical resources, including entire books on technique, The Painter in Oil, by Bouguereau student, Daniel Burleigh Parkhurst, an extract from the Dictionary of Human Form by Ted Seth Jacobs, and countless other essays and commentary on technique.
- Best of ARC, featuring discussions and posts of the brightest and best living artists, world experts, and historians.
- Hundreds of biographies and artworks of the world's all time greats like Leonardo, Raphael, Bouguereau, Rossetti, Waterhouse, Millais, Millet, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, etc.
