About Us

I am Michel Prins, born and raised in Amsterdam.
My story is that since I was in high school I have been researching how the computer and the Internet can be used in the field of art production and marketing.
In 1999, as a startup, I set up a virtual 3 Dimensional exhibition space on the World Wide Web called  the ART-STATION in which I exhibited works by 8 artists.
I was way ahead of my time, so, it's hard to imagine now, but many artists I approached were not interested in presenting their art online, mind you this was a year before facebook came online.
Because entrepreneurs understood the potential of the internet much better, I started making webshops/websites for entrepreneurs.
for example:
Vera Lemm of Relationship Mediation Agency Vera Lemm for higher educated people. She was the first dating site with videoclip in the Netherlands, an intro videoclip it was small due to slower internet speeds,
but with sound and you got a good first impression of Vera.
The famous Polish fashion photographer Janusz Spakovsky.
and Nanni Haminga of the Nanni Bridal fashion studio.
I also exhibited my digital work in Amsterdam twice during this period.
Now I'm going back to my roots, selling art in my webshop/gallery, called MichelPrins.Net.
Converting my creative energy, as directly as possible, into a desirable product through digital means. Lets say making something wonderfull out of nothing!

Sincerely,

Michel Prins
