Digital Catalogue Raisonné
A permanent record
of living artists
Global Catalogue Raisonné (GCR) is building a living record of contemporary art. By connecting artists, artworks, exhibitions, publications, collections, and public art market activity, GCR creates an evolving network that documents not only the works themselves, but the lives they continue to live in the world.
Art Market
See what is coming next in the art world.
GCR follows upcoming art sales as part of the public life of artworks, connecting auction houses, artists, and catalogue records into a living calendar that grows over time.
Documentation, not promotion
A catalogue gives an artist’s work context, continuity, and memory.
Structured records
Each artwork can be documented with images, dates, materials, dimensions, notes, exhibitions, publications, and provenance.
Living catalogues
GCR is designed for living artists whose bodies of work continue to grow, change, and require careful documentation over time.
Long-term reference
The goal is not to replace galleries or portfolios, but to create a stable reference point for artists, curators, collectors, and researchers.
For artists and art professionals
Build the record while the work is still alive.
Artists can begin privately, refine their records over time, and publish a catalogue when it is ready to be shared with galleries, curators, collectors, and the public.
