UAE Art Collector / Global Art Awards / Global Art Agency
Hi, I work for an artist and we have received two “fishy” proposals:
1. UAE Art Collector/Global Art Awards/Global Art Agency – they sent an email pay-to-play proposal to be included in their “Art Book” (cost: between 850-1500 USD). The email made it seem like this is an established publication (published at least once before, in 2017), however, on closer inspection we found out that it has never been published (they keep pushing the deadline). When we asked about last year’s book (there was a call for artists online) – they were dodgy and replied that this is the first one. This enterprise is somehow connected to the Global Art Awards, which are organised by the Global Art Agency (they also organise numerous fairs, all pay-to-play). I wonder if anyone has had any experience with them?

What about the founders and members of global art awards are they all fake and what about the partners and the event of last year and they do state that it’s a new book on the link you posted right ??
I had a similar email but they said it was her future artists new art book it might be a scam and actually the winners don’t win anything but An oscar worth nothing ?.
But is it a scam?
Maybe its easy way to make money But overall it’s the same as a scam-
