.artist Domain Names

No live delegation found

.artist suggests a clear arts-led identity for creators, studios and organisations working in visual art, performance, music, design and related cultural fields. Publicly announced information identifies Link Freedom Group as the applicant associated with.artist, but a live delegation record was not found in the public root zone records reviewed, so the extension should be treated as unconfirmed for registration use.
