A company for business as a professional, at first glance, might think it is mutually exclusive with research activities. However, Art Lab. is a company with research base.

Art Lab. thinks art business is special. Business and research activities are inextricably linked. Trading in artwork, identification, storage, repair, academic point of view is indispensable. The world's traditional auction companies have their own respective corresponding level researchers and experts, and keep themselves to be more professional.

Research is ramification. Generally speaking it is the art research, but it can be broadly divided into two areas, art history and aesthetics. Art Lab.’s main research area is the art historian. Of course, even that is called art historian, now it is broken down into many aspects, such as human professional field, it is advancement, as widely as wilderness. In art historian includes not only aesthetic, but also sociology, cultural anthropology of knowledge. The targets of today's art are not only painting, sculpture, architecture, technology, but also advertising design, animation, media arts. They are fully covered. Art Lab.’s goal is to make art historians as the axis to maximize the scope of Arts.

Living in the era of laying particular stress on economic value, the recent world economy is so full of uncertainty. Art research models not for profit are more and more difficult. To this end, in the future, Art Lab. considers that all parties work together, and with the help of government agencies, to promote non-profit research activities.

No matter what age, Art Lab. carries out art career, at the same time we do not give up our own field of study. Purely as a business, art business is meaningless.

Art Lab. make coordination with art business and art research for the idea, and strive to carry out activities.
