grantLOVE is an art project started by Los Angeles-based artist Alexandra Grant in 2008 to help raise awareness and money for various arts nonprofits through the gift and sale of her LOVE artwork. Alexandra’s LOVE symbol originated from a sculpture she exhibited in 2008 at Honor Fraser gallery, A Love That Should Have Lasted. She trademarked the LOVE symbol in 2012.
Through grantLOVE, Alexandra produces art, jewelry, apparel, home goods, limited edition prints, and neons based on her LOVE symbol in collaboration with other artists, printers, and fabricators. grantLOVE creates community and supports nonprofits, artists, and artist projects in two ways: 1) through the creation and donation of LOVE artworks and merchandise directly to nonprofits, fundraising auctions, and artists’ organizations and projects, and 2) through the direct sales of LOVE artworks and merchandise on grantLOVE.com, which pays for materials and production costs and supports collaborating artists directly through stipends.
In addition, grantLOVE works with businesses by offering a free license of the LOVE symbol to create LOVE branded items.
