Collection: Squarespace Templates for Artists

An artist's website should disappear behind the work. The templates in this collection were chosen for exactly that restraint: generous white space, gallery layouts that respect the proportions of each piece, and navigation that stays quiet. At the same time, they handle the practical side of an art practice, with room for artist statements, CVs and exhibition histories, and shop pages for selling originals and prints.

When curating this collection we assessed how faithfully each template displays artwork at different aspect ratios, how well series and collections can be organised, whether commerce can be added without compromising the design, and overall page speed with large images. Every template here is built for Squarespace 7.1 and Fluid Engine, so rearranging a portfolio for a new body of work takes minutes.

From painters and illustrators to sculptors and mixed-media artists, these designs from established Squarespace creators let the work lead, giving galleries, collectors, and commissioning clients a clear view of your practice.
