Pérez Palermo
The catalog website of Julián Andrés Pérez Palermo, a painter from Mercedes, Buenos Aires: 31 original works, each with its status up to date — and he maintains it himself.
An artist sells one-of-a-kind pieces: once a painting is sold, it’s gone. A buyer needs to know at a glance what is still available, and the work needs to be shown with the care of a gallery, not a generic online store.
A catalog organized by period, where every work shows its status — available, sold, reserved or on show — and has its own page with technique, dimensions and the artist’s text. He adds, edits and removes works himself, without depending on a developer.
A gallery that keeps itself up to date

- Status always visible on every piece
Artwork page
Every piece has its own page, like a museum label.
- Its own URL, listed in the sitemap for search engines

Self-management
The artist keeps his catalog up to date on his own.

31 works online, 18 of them available, each with its status up to date. When a painting sells or goes to an exhibition, the artist updates it himself in a minute.
A gallery, not a store
Grey gallery walls, every work framed in a white passe-partout, titles in serif italics like an exhibition label, and plenty of air. The only strong colors are the paintings themselves and the small status dot under each one.
Grotesque sans-serif for the interface · serif italics for titles and texts
