History   

Results / Testimonials   


MINDWEB.us was created in May of 2007 by Marcus L. Wise as an online gallery for a small community of artists, who shared the common aim of exposing their work. In 2009, the site continues to add musicians, artists, photographers and has since begun a partnership with the Author’s Guild of WNY.


In February, 2009, MINDWEB owner Marcus L. Wise opened a gallery and retail space, 464 which acts as a physical counterpart to the website.


MINDWEB.us & 464 Gallery are divisions of Marcus L. Wise Photography.

As a result of membership, our members have been offered dozens of jobs, have made thousands of dollars in sales and have even been approached about exclusive gallery openings, record contracts, events, festivals and shows.


Including: the Buffalo Infringement Festival, the Buffalo Indie Market, the Pittsburgh/Buffalo Sundae Market, Tangent Literary Arts Magazine, Music is Art among others. Our members have also been approached for book covers, inclusion in movies, logo work and other freelance projects.


“MINDWEB has opened many doors towards my emerging art career. The website speaks volumes on what their membership has to offer. Updates on the site are frequent and bring a visitor’s return to fresh, new content. MINDWEB not only offers me the option to update my statement and artwork frequently, they encourage it. I highly recommend any aspiring artist to become a member of this site.”  ~Chuck Tingley


“My art has been showcased beautifully. People who visit the site have a real view of my art and poetry. They walk away knowing how I feel as an artist. I am very proud to be associated with other artists in Buffalo and grateful for all the connections I have made thru this site. I hooked up with Tangent Magazine as a result of my MINDWEB affiliation and now my poetry is published in the latest issue. Anyone who has interest in my art has visited MINDWEB because it is the best view of my abilities. I recommend any artist to join this site, it is so worth it.”   ~Chastity Roberts
