When creating a private gallery, the artist (author) of the work exhibited by the owner is unknown,
There is a case where a problem of copyright (publication right) processing may occur, but such a problem can be dealt with by the server administrator. That is, for a work whose author is unknown, the server specifies the author, and then the server specifies the contact information from the copyright holder database and negotiates with the author for publication permission.

When applying for a private gallery, the owner applies for analysis of the exhibited works in advance. And when the web page with the work image is completed,
The server sends the page to a work analysis expert.

The analysis result is returned from the server to the owner by e-mail, or displayed on a web page accessible only by the owner. In addition, the results of this analysis can be posted on a private gallery if the owner so desires. At the same time, the server will introduce other artists' works that match the owner's collection tendency. The server has a work database categorized by the theme, motif, etc. of the work, selects works according to the collection tendency of the owner based on the analysis result, and provides the owner with the analysis result together with the analysis result. .

The server can set a fan club web page for each artist for the purpose of providing a place for artists and members to communicate with each other. Members of the fan club will receive the latest artist information via email.

Based on the popularity vote, the sales results of the works and the like may be taken into account, and the members of the artist permanent exhibition may be replaced. In addition, the server provides an “exhibition event information” page. On this page, information on solo exhibitions and art exhibitions actually held in exhibition rooms and galleries and information on events in which artists participate will be posted on web pages. Further, on this page, information on the desired visit time of a visitor of the event is accepted on a web page for reservation, the desired visit time is totaled, and the total result is displayed on the web page. General fans often don't have the opportunity to talk to an artist who wants to talk to them, and even if they attend an event, they can still talk to artists who are busy talking with other fans and stakeholders. Sometimes it is difficult to communicate and even see the artist. However, as described above, if the participants of the event are made to reserve the visit time in advance, it is possible to obtain information such as when and how many participants will visit. By publishing this on a web page, it is possible to notify other visitors who wish to attend a time zone where the number of visitors is relatively small. This allows the participant to participate in the event and communicate with the artist. In the above-described embodiment, each display screen is an example, and it goes without saying that the display items, display positions, and display contents are not limited. Further, the work display system according to the above-described embodiment is directed to paintings, but is not limited to paintings, and can be directed to any works of art such as sculptures, ceramics, and photographs.
