Many photographers and creative freelancers are in a critical situation due to the current situation. This is where the #fineartthatcares campaign comes in and offers support for many creative people from a wide range of sectors. The German fine art brand CAPTURE X is giving away 1000 boxes of fine art paper to the aforementioned target group and is offering its own website as an attention-grabbing platform. With this campaign, CAPTURE X, a brand of the Felix Schoeller Group, wants to draw attention to the difficult situation of the creative self-employed and call for support.
The corona pandemic has put the creative industry in a difficult position - whether professional photographers, self-employed designers, illustrators or tattoo artists. The fine art brand CAPTURE X has experienced the worries and existential fears of photographers up close, as it is in constant contact with its target group. "We want to set an example and make an active contribution to help many creative people in these challenging times," says Christin Meyer, Senior Marketing Manager of CAPTURE X. "For this reason, we have launched the #finearthatcares campaign to draw attention to the creative industry," Christin Meyer continues.
The campaign in detail
As part of the #fineartthatcares campaign, CAPTURE X is giving away 1000 boxes of 25 sheets each of one of its fine art papers to photographers and creative self-employed people. Interested parties only have to register on the website www.capture-x-papers.com/fineartthatcares. The box will then be sent home free of charge. With this box, up to 25 individual fine art prints can be created, which the photographers can then sell via their own shops or websites. CAPTURE X has also set up a website on which all the works created are published and linked to the photographers' shops. The works created are also shared on the CAPTURE X Facebook and Instagram profiles. "In this way, we give many creatives another public platform to present their works. Our goal is to make many visitors want to buy one of the #fineartthatcares works and thus support a good cause," Christin Meyer tells us.
Anyone can support
All information on how to participate yourself or how to support the campaign can be found on the CAPTURE X website www.capture-x-papers.com/fineartthatcares. "We are happy about everyone who supports this initiative. Without the creative industry, the world would definitely be a greyer place. Let's stand close together in these times so that Fine Art continues to make our lives more colourful and beautiful ", Christin Meyer concludes.
