Traveling where our #clients are 🎼⁠⁠This Traveling where our #clients are 🎼⁠⁠This friday we are reminiscing about this remarkable painting that perfectly compliments the interior design concept at this contemporary home of a collectors couple in Frankfurt.

#ArtistToWatch⁠We´ve meet Livia a while back a #ArtistToWatch⁠We´ve meet Livia a while back and then had the pleasure to work with her on our #AndazPrague project, today we would like to introduce her work to you. In her series Nomad Patterns, she  made her work from fragments of everyday objects – cups, bowls, jars, pots and the like – that appear as staged somehow indeterminately between something that is about to collapse or has just been restored; between things that have been invested with the attention of care but that also have the appearance of a ruin. These works aim to reflect on aspects of loss and care, disposal and preservation, and on the relationship we develop with the day-to-day objects that populate our everyday lives. ⁠Her work, seen within the image is ceramic, resin, transfer-print glaze in various dimensions. For us certainly an artist to watch out! #BecauseArtMakesADifference⁠Image courtesy goes to Livia Marin 🤍⁠#velvenoir #artist #introduction #kunst #künstler #contemporaryart #art #ceramic #ceramicart #liviamarin #artcollecting
#HappyCollectors 🌍️⁠In this beautiful sea- #HappyCollectors 🌍️⁠In this beautiful sea-side property, located in Zadar, Croatia, we have selected artworks that would connect to both the ocean, which is the project’s main character, and to Steininger’s minimalist design concept characterized by the use of materials like concrete brut, exquisite woods, and rare metal alloys. One of our picks was the artwork from Jonathan, a large-scale fine art photograph beautiful framed with a white shadow-gap frame. The work invited the seaside scenes which enhance the poetic presence of the sea in the interior spaces of this lavish residence.⁠⁠Interested in exploring more - you can discover the entire art collection we've sourced, curated and procured here: https://velvenoir.com/portfolio-item/kensho-zadar-croatia/ ⁠⁠#artconsultancy #art #contemporaryart #kunst #kunstberatung #artcollaboration #steininger #steiningerdesigners #residence #zadar #internațional #collaboration #artists ⁠

#HappyCollector Insights 💫⁠This year we had #HappyCollector Insights 💫⁠This year we had the pleasure to procure this powerful artwork from Michel Perez Pollo. The paintings may seem childlike and naive, but his concern is to avoid faithful accuracy in favor of a universal expression. His models are figures and shapes made of modelling clay, which he greatly enlarges and exaggerates when painting them. His particular style of painting is bold, often lavish in his application of the fluid paint, and therefore reminiscent of revolutionary murals, depictions imbued with messages. He reinterprets it expressionistically, in strong paintings. Where once debilitating melancholia loomed, he reports with a positive attitude, with personal gravity and self-assertion. ⁠⁠#ArtistToWatch #MichelPerezPollo #velvenoir #artconsultancy #fineart #contemporaryart #cubanart #painting #figurative #artcollecting #artcollection #kunst #kunstberatung #artconsultancy #artadvisory

#HappyCollectors and a wonderful collaboration ⁠ #HappyCollectors and a wonderful collaboration ⁠This Summer we had the pleasure to source and acquire this powerful work from German artist Pia Fries at her #NewYork Gallery. In collaboration with the interior design team of #AndreaRodman this new work has been carefully installed at a Vancouver residence going hand-in hand with the unique interior design concept Andrea has designed for her client. The work from Pia Fries invites to close, deliberate examination. Tracing the contours of her gestures, the viewer explores the various textures and materials used to merge an array of energetic colors across a bright void of space. Yau expands on Fries’s critical use of paint, “It takes an immense amount of confidence to leave so much of the painting open and untouched; it takes even more confidence to use white paint on a white field. The interaction of figure (paint and form) and ground (unpainted surface) is an intricate and entrancing dance.” The artist arrives at a complex visual unity through varied means of applying color, unpredictable layers of imagery, and the viscous materiality of her medium. Her work is included in numerous public and private collections. ⁠⁠"Ever since encountering her work at her Zurich based gallery I've been inspired throughout her entire Oeuvre."-Alexandra ⁠⁠#artconsultancy #kunstberatung #artsourcing #artcuration #artcollection #residential #andrearodman #international #collaboration #artcollecting #piafries ⁠⁠
#ArtSourcing for private collectors, this time loo #ArtSourcing for private collectors, this time looking at the powerful work from Jamaican artist Paul Anthony Smith. In this series 'Dreams Deferred', titled after the Langston Hughes poem of the same name, depicts varied urban landscapes, each seemingly contained within single or double chain link fences. The underlayer of these works are photographs taken by Smith of mundane, vacant lots throughout New York City; though when painted over with a heavy impasto of oil stick, these surfaces transform into lush gardens that push against and challenge their barriers. To Smith, these works are a metaphor for the elusive American dream – seductive flowers ready to be picked, yet accessible only to a certain set of people who are granted entry. This flora functions akin to a memento mori, serving as a reminder that once these beautiful, yet fleeting, objects are taken for one’s own, they quickly extinguish. The gestural and painterly surfaces of these works suggest that although structures in place attempt to regiment access to these Edenic spaces, the dream has potential to take on a life of its own and rebel against these systems. Smith invokes Hughes’ words: “What happens to a dream deferred?/ Does it dry up/ like a raisin in the sun?/ …Or does it explode?” ⁠⁠His work truly makes you wonder...⁠⁠#PaulAnthonySmith #painting #NewYorkCity #artconsultancy #kunstberatung #art #contemporaryart #story #inspiration #somethingtothinkabout ⁠

#ArtistToWatch ⁠Sarah Meyohas is a French-Ameri #ArtistToWatch ⁠Sarah Meyohas is a French-American conceptual artist working across media and emerging technologies. Artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency, the stock market, virtual reality, and augmented reality are materials she molds into visions of beauty, bringing the concept of value into focus. Meyohas inserts subjectivity into the mechanized, creating performative situations out of which artworks emerge as reflections. ⁠⁠Meyohas’s practice, which she has described as existing at the “intersection of markets, society and emerging technology,” is characterized by this same unapologetic approach to the realities of art and capital. Bitchcoin (2015), her first major project, was born of two contemporary trends: the ascent of cryptocurrency and the emergence of social media influencers who convert their personal lives into bankable commodities.“Karl Marx used the metaphor of a reflection multiple times in his writing to describe value,” Meyohas says. “But I’d almost use a financial term like leverage. The constructions within the frame are leveraged through reflection.”⁠⁠These pieces are often archly feminine, sometimes featuring pastel colors and flowers, not to mention the yawning speculum’s-eye view at their center. Yet, as an element of Bitchcoin, they stake Meyohas’s place as an artist who claims the male-dominated space of finance as her canvas.⁠⁠Read more about her works here: https://www.brintzgallery.com/news/sarah-meyohas-with-bitchcoin-sarah-meyohas-started-the-cryptoart-craze-shes-still-innovating ⁠⁠#sarahmeyohas #artist #artcollecting #nft #bitcoin #velvenoir #femaleartist #kunst #kunstberatung #artconsultancy #artadvisory #finance #artmarket

#Impressions on the work behind while discussing # #Impressions on the work behind while discussing #contemporaryart in hand with leading interior designers for their clients new #residential.⁠⁠For us,  it is about realizing the story of your client through art or an entire concept based on the client and developed design concept. When it comes down to sourcing and proposing unique pieces for your project, it is very personal. However, in today’s, world time is limited and a personal approach appreciated – clients will welcome the fact, you assist them in finding their personal statement for their home and took the extra step for them.  Acquiring art is motivated by passion and emotional value rather than a price tag – however it is key to keeping both in mind, the preference and the budget to ensure the art shown to the client could be part of their design concept for their home. ⁠⁠It is a journey to find the right piece of art – but it is a journey worth taking. As you walk along, you will encounter outstanding pieces that feel like they are a part of you. …because ART makes a difference!⁠⁠#velvenoir #artsourcing #impressions #artlover #art #kunst #kunstberating #personal #artjourney #artcollecting #interiordesigners #artcollector #hotels #artadvisory #contemporaryart #process #behindthescenes #passion ⁠⁠
#ArtistToWatch⁠⁠A while back, we had the ple #ArtistToWatch⁠⁠A while back, we had the pleasure to introduce Jeremie´s art to our Viennese collectors circle back in 2017. My personal favorite sujet was the work: "Carrière, Larchant, 2012". Throughout his work, he provides a strong pictoriality of his photographic Oeuvre. Without proper subject, without seeking an objective reproduction of a "true" landscape, Jérémie's photographs offer a sensitive travel through what Marc Augé called "non places". Deeply inspired by Dusseldorf Kunstakademie artists and expressionnist painters such as Rothko, Noland, Soulages or Malevitch, his work tries both a representation of reality and its transfiguration in paintings, attempting to give a new realism to our contemporary territories. #fineartphotography ⁠⁠Now the last edition of this work, is now part of one of our private collectors art collection.. It has been such a pleasure to place it in their private collection. #happycollector ⁠⁠⁠Photo Credit goes to the artist and gallery. ⁠⁠#velvenoir #artsourcing #impressions #artlover #art #kunst #kunstberating #personal #artjourney #artcollecting  #artcollector #artadvisory #contemporaryart #landscape #photography ⁠⁠
#WhatWeStandFor - when working with us: ⁠⁠"A #WhatWeStandFor - when working with us: ⁠⁠"Art plays a huge part within today’s society. For us and for our clients, it defines the story we start working on. ⁠An artwork is unique, something special, a masterpiece of an artist who dedicated his life to this profession, building his career within the art market as well as using various techniques, to make each piece, one of a kind." and we don't stop sourcing internationally to find the hidden gems, powerful artworks on behalf of our art collector, clients from our interior design partners and for our #hosptiatliy projects. #BecauseArtMakesADifference⁠⁠#velvenoir #artsourcing #impressions #artlover #art #kunst #kunstberating #personal #artjourney #artcollecting #interiordesigners #artcollector #hotels #artadvisory #contemporaryart

#AndazWalkofMyths⁠⁠The protagonists of Pragu #AndazWalkofMyths⁠⁠The protagonists of Prague legends such as Libuse, Knight Brunsvik, and the White Lion inspired the artists profoundly and found manifold expression thanks to the targeted compilation of art movements: the entrance already impresses with a breathtaking glass installation by the Czech artist Vendulka Prchalová. This installation takes its cue from the old craft and references the astronomical clock - probably one of Prague's most famous landmarks - and brings it impressively into the modern age. Visitors are invited to delve further into the Andaz world and discover unique installations by Czech artist David Valner inspired by the Brunsvik forest or the Golden Road by Portuguese Miguel A. Rodrigues, large-scale murals by Jakub Tytykalo on the theme of Kafka, and impressive paintings in the public areas. The legends are whispered here, gently taking over the space and accompanying the guest to their room, where works based on the legends of Libuse and Knight Brunsvik await them. Those who wish can dive deep into the legends and are also invited to find themselves again in the city during the #AndazWalkOfMyths⁠⁠#artconsultany #artconcept #artcuration #contemporaryart #visualartists #andazprague #artcommissions #artcollection #contemporaryartists #fineart #kunst #kunstberatung #artjourney

This friday we are reminiscing about this remarkable painting that perfectly compliments the interior design concept at this contemporary home of a collectors couple in Frankfurt. Inspired by Van Gogh, this painting adds the right amount of colour to this beautiful space and we've been super happy about sourcing and acquiring this work on behalf of our collectors. 🎨⁠
Read the full story about this collaboration with Frankfurt based interior designer, Simone Jüschke on our website. ✨ ⁠

“It comes to seem almost revolutionary in our wo “It comes to seem almost revolutionary in our world to use intuition as a way of making choices” - Hayal Pozanti  #artisttowwatch⁠
⁠
We continue to introduce you to a contemporary artist we believe in - our artist to watch this week is: ⁠
⁠
Hayal Pozanti ⁠
Her jewel coloured, eye-catching artworks are inspired by her desire to discover a different, more ethical way of life. She merges 31 ciphers as essential #buildingblocks to create a lyrically abstract world where plants and animals thrive : a utopian mix of technology and nature. ⁠
⁠
We are excited for her first solo exhibition with #timothytaylorgallery this April in #newyorkcity. ⏱️. ⁠

#HappyFriday we are looking back @alexlakezurich⁠
A while back, we had the pleasure to curate, commission and install a permanent collection of contemporary art from visual artists living all over the world 🌍 reflecting on the unique experience guests will have at this boutique hotel. Each artwork was selected because it narrates a story and delves into the artist’s tradition and culture…making the stay a truly personal and one of a kind experience. 🤍 #becauseartmakesadifference ⁠
⁠
#WheninZurich stay at #AlexLakeZurich and experience the art first hand and most importantly let us know what you think of our curated #artcollection ⁠
