Art you can buy

"art you can buy" was a slogan of britart.com . Does this slogan mean more "everybody can buy art" or "art that everybody can buy"?

P.S. Britart is an Internet based art gallery offering for sale original works of art from living British artists, including paintings, sculpture, limited edition prints and photographs ( https://www.bloomberg.com/research/stocks/private/snapshot.asp?privcapId=861837).

catttt "art you can buy" was a slogan As a slogan, and from just what you've said about it, I see "art you can buy" in contrast to (or the opposite of) "art in galleries or museums that you cannot buy". In very stark terms it's the difference between "art for sale" and "art not for sale". I don't pick up any cues that involve the idea of "everybody".
