#artconsultancy Insights visiting the #estate of German #sculptor and #painter Christian Peschke in Flintsbach, Bayern ✨

The eyes should learn to see and the hands and skin should learn to feel. His sculptures are not only there to be seen but need to be touched as well so that the material and the surface – the skin – of the stone can be felt. His art wants to be touched and explored with the hands and fingers.
With Peschke, sensitivity and attraction belong together in order to create an overall impression. The magnificence and shine of the colors complete the overall impression and fullness of perception. As far as that is concerned, art is always a festival of the senses with a Peschke, a celebration of joy. This happy experience of art is created by the stimulus to our senses, which are activated, come alive, open up, and participate in the world of art. Art is an art of perception, an explosion of the senses and as an encounter with a new reality that can be seen and felt – this is all combined in the work of Christian Peschke, and gives his work its special aura. ...
His unique artworks, technique, and inspirations captured on canvas or wood panel become complete with the old antique frames. Whereas his female body sculptures capture his Elan and love for women. ....
Special thanks to Angelika Peschke for inviting us @velvenoir this year, to keep exploring the estate (#paintings and #sculptures) from #christianpeschke

If you are interested in his work, please do reach out to info@velvenoir.com to receive further details.

#project insights on Thursday, this summer, we had the pleasure to install the art at the beautifully designed beach villa in Zadar, Croatia where we joined the interior designer @juergen.hamberger from @steininger.designers in the initial stages with our art consultancy services.

For the client, we developed an art concept based on the collectors' vision and interior concept - that entailed this large-scale fine-art photography (seen in the photo) from Munich-based artist Johannes Weinsheimer. His oeuvre s an expression of his visual perception of the environment. His previous work emerged from his travels through the USA, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and France and is a reflection of reality, not staged, scenarios and situations. The transition from realism to abstraction draws the viewer into the artist's unique visual world. By reducing complexity to abstract forms and colors, the artist creates emotional and meditative moments – despite his use of intense colors and high contrasts. "I perceive my environment primarily through color. Reality blurs into soft abstract forms that transition into each other. Objects lose some of their significance and a picture emerges in my head of soft shapes with clear, intense colors. When viewing the images, I want to create moments of relaxation and lightness," says Weinsheimer.
In his subject matter, the artist's eye deliberately seeks out the tension between form and color, dissolving it in harmony and beauty. The result is photographs that are impossible to tear yourself away from, that you are not likely to forget.

#hotels with #art in their #hearts it´s again time for us to share another hotel with you, which speaks our language.

The pastoral landscape of Provence is impossible to upstage, so the owners of Villa La Coste have sought instead to adorn it with dazzling flourishes of creativity. Throughout the biodynamic vineyard of @chateaulacoste and art hotel, sculptures are tucked amid verdant woodland, hills, and lawns – including works by acclaimed artists #AiWeiwei and #TraceyEmin. You can enjoy a two-hour private art and architecture walk with the curator, learning all about the eclectic collection while taking in the beautiful Provençal countryside. Also, the hotel is home to its very own arts center and hosts temporary exhibitions throughout the year. Stay here, and you’ll never be short of art to admire (nor home-grown wine to sip as you do). Certainly a great art experience we couldn´t resist in sharing with you

We hope you all had an amazing weekend - no better way to start off this week with today´s quote from gallerist Jose Freire on how to approach contemporary art, to protect artists and the value of their work - and we couldn´t agree with him more! #happymonday #velvenoir #quote

#artconsultancy note “I do not invest in art as

#artconsultancy note “I do not invest in art as a financial asset. Art is an investment in the quality of life. “(…)” Art is there to stimulate our minds and question our ways of thinking and not to be another investment! “- (Francesca von Habsburg, from Adam Lindemann, collecting contemporary art, Taschen 2006, p. 169)

Are you currently looking for art from a certain artist? Are you interested in contemporary art but don’t know where to start? Have you visited a couple of galleries and art fairs – yet you don’t feel comfortable asking for the price or more details about the artist?

◾️ Our role as an art consultant is to help you find YOUR perfect artwork, a work of art that reflects you (lifestyle, desires, dreams, motivations, etc.) and ensure to make this process a pleasant and enjoyable experience. Since you are going to live with the artwork, in your home, it’s best to buy what you truly love – that’s key when starting your own art collection.

We will take care of the entire process from sourcing, researching the artist, to acquire and negotiate on your behalf. Manage the perfect framing, logistic, insurance, and installation on-site – while we keep you very closely in the loop of things. Our job is done – when we personally hand over our VELVENOIR folder. #becausewecare

#throwback Friday always great to look back at previous projects just like this one where we had the pleasure to work on. The modern home was built by award-winning LA-based architecture firm Griffin Enright’s Architects and combines modern architecture with contemporary features. The developers were eager to sell a curated concept to their clients entailing a curated art collection from locally based artists – statement pieces to wow the new buyers as well as adding cultural capital to the estate itself. The provided brief was to curate and develop a tailored art concept in-line with the interior design. VELVENOIR´s art consultant Alexandra Ray and Founder Alexandra Schafer had been appointed to curate a contemporary art collection reflecting the luxury house and it´s interiors. It was essential to source locally based artists from California and offer a blended mix of emerging and established career artists’ works to be part of the entire property and design concept.
Alex Ray and Alexandra Schafer sourced and procured the art on site very carefully.

#artiststudiovisit in #Vienna We head the pleasure to meet and explore the art from Martin in person. In his work, he pushes the limits of traditional painting. Most of his delicately executed paintings expand to the third dimension without denying their two-dimensional origin. He devoted his attention over the last decades more or less exclusively to the human image. His work demonstrates an innovative and unconventional approach to the portrait and to painting in general, which the artist liberates from its bondage to the two-dimensional surface, conquering the third dimension.

When looking at each one of his unique artworks his art becomes dynamic when you walk around the space yet, you will always mirror the interior in each artwork and keep on seeing different perspectives of the space. Loved exploring such dynamic pieces and the painting technique used. @lexa_ndra

A large-scale Fabienne Verdier painting invites the homeowners into their new villa.

Fabienne Verdier (b. 1962, Paris, France) is an abstract painter who explores the dynamism of forces in nature, movement, and immobility by drawing on her intimate knowledge of techniques and traditions of both Western and Eastern art. Verdier paints vertically in ink, standing directly on her stretchers, using giant brushes and tools of her own invention suspended from the studio ceiling. Her work combines Eastern aspects of unity, spontaneity, and asceticism with the line, action, and expression of Western painting.

Fabienne Verdier has developed a form of painting that is deeply personal and spiritual. Fabienne Verdier’s painting is continuous with the experience of the American abstract painters (Tobey, Kline, Still, Pollock ou de Kooning) and carries on the work of artists who have explored the line, such as Matisse, Michaux or Degottex. The work of Fabienne Verdier, whose spontaneity springs forth from an absolute mastery, where knowledge of the past allows her to seize the moment, which links the East and the West, aspires to reconcile Everything in a grand, unique Breath. Fabienne Verdier carries us in universal gravitation, rooted in the multiple dimensions of space, which take form inside her ink itself.

“I don’t believe one is in control when one creates,” she says. “It’s an illusion because we are no more than specks of dust in space. But when I put myself at the center of gravity by standing up and moving with the brush, I feel I am tapping into these forces and the truth that’s transmitted goes far beyond me as an individual.”
