Concerning Authenticity-Tagsmart, by Poly Mindset on Dec 31, 2016 21:12:21 GMT 1, No, this is not an advertisement and I have no personal affiliation with this company or their product, just sharing some information with fellow forum members as that is one of the purposes of this place, isn't it? I very recently purchased the new Dan Hillier piece 'Undreamt' from Saatchi Gallery and found out that it does have a DNA code through Tagsmart which can be enabled by the purchaser for roughly 10 gbp. I did a little research through the Tagsmart website and found that this is a fabulous system which really leaves no doubt for authentication. It basically is a giant registry where an artist, gallery or buyer can request a special what they call DNA encoding that is put on the artwork and once enabled can be authenticated in a matter of minutes through the Tagsmart website. However, it is obviously a new system and is meant for new pieces but I think it's definitely a big step in the right direction as it leaves no doubt as to the authentication of a piece of art. My feeling is more and more artists, galleries and buyers will be requesting this system in the near future simply because there is just too much fake art out there. Finally, a simple solution to authentication.

Concerning Authenticity-Tagsmart, by Whitefish on Dec 31, 2016 22:13:12 GMT 1, I am working on a similar product that lets buyers authenticate certain artists works. (Which deals with identifiable radioactive isotopes) I am going the route that is both transparent to the artist and their collectors, that this is the only real way to confirm/authenticate, and legitimize the fact the piece is authentic... In the court of law.
On that same point, I am working an anti-bot system for artists to use when selling limited releases. This technology is no doubt going to piss alot of people off. With the new changes in the United States concerning bots and laws relating the bot pandemic, I feel as an insider I should help this cause. I am not trying to sell anything, nor am I plugging for any company. I just thought that this community should be aware of its members; behind the scenes contributions! Just say to yourself, "anti-bot technology what is that"?
BOTS BE AWARE... It is comingx10

Concerning Authenticity-Tagsmart, by Art Fan 2011 on Jan 1, 2017 13:42:17 GMT 1, Anything that stops all the "American sneeker kids" using there bots is a good thing, but like all things tech, its incredibly difficult to stay one stop ahead. Kids can hack into the Pentagon so winning a few prints from an internet store will always be childsplay. Tagsmart looks interesting, about time we moved into the 21st century when it comes to authenticating art!

Any new opinions on TagSmart?
Have people been using it, involved in transactions and tagged artwork changing hands?
What are your thoughts?
Here is one of my favorite artist implementing it into his newest release, coming soon
