Setting up this site and keeping it on-line has required hard work as well as financial expenses. We have been on-line since January 1997, and we hope to be helpful to our users also for the next years. OCAIW is visited by over three hundred thousand people each month: art lovers, teachers, students, artists and collectors.

Wondering how to resolve this problem, we were faced with two possibilities: have our regular visitors offer a donation or show advertising. We chose the latter as we wish to continue providing free access to our site. Our main concern has always been to host a discreet advertising.   More detail...
