A Chat with Laurence Carr

In the quest for optimal energy in the spaces we occupy, art is an extremely powerful tool. Depending on the medium, theartist, and the work itself, each piece embodies dramatically different energy—energy that can be built upon. My husband and I are avid collectors, with fifteen pieces of fine art in our collection. We tend […]

#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

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 ⁠⁠

#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

The provided brief was to curate and develop a tailored art concept in-line with the interior design, to highlight the uniqueness of the property.

#ArtistToWatchOut ⁠⁠20th Century & #Contempo #ArtistToWatchOut ⁠⁠20th Century & #Contemporaryart Auction Day & Evening Sale at Phillips London are offering a superb selection of art to bid during #Friezeweek. ⁠⁠The artwork 'Working Through Not Knowing a Damn Thing About Anything' from Austyn Weiner has captured our attention when attending the preview. ⁠⁠With a background in photography, Weiner works across a wide range of mediums — including oil paint, crayon, and charcoal — to deconstruct physicality and feeling into sensual forms. Driven by an autobiographic urge, her supercharged palette references the richly saturated colors of her childhood in Miami. "Most of the time, I approach a painting with no idea as to what it will be," she says. "But once in a while it hits like an arrow, and I know exactly what this work needs to become." Weiner’s work has been the subject of several solo shows, including her first solo show at Journal Gallery in New York in 2019, and most recently at Carl Kostyál in London and Bill Brady Gallery in Miami. #artcollecting⁠Photo Courtesy goes to the artist and Phillips ⁠#contemporaryart #abstract #painting #phillips #auctionhouse #auction #London #velvenoir #austinweiner #artist #kunst #kunstberatung

#ArtistToWatch ⁠& #HappyCollector ✨ ⁠Today #ArtistToWatch ⁠& #HappyCollector ✨ ⁠Today we would like to introduce you to Cornelia Baltes a German artist known for her paintings and installations that blend abstraction and figuration into her Oeuvre. “What I love most about her work are the bold colors, combined with facial elements.” She uses corporeal elements such as hands, feet, and facial features are suggested amid bold color fields and gestures. These biomorphic elements capture the experience of viewing a bodily form in flight, not fully registered by the eye. To construct her paintings, Baltes applies dense pigment in a tightly controlled palette to canvas, creating finely gradated color fields that at times mask the raw canvas, and at other times reveal it. Then, the artist applies brushstrokes in spare but vibrant compositions.⁠ ⁠The artwork Nem, 2022 - has been placed at one of our collectors private collection and we are super excited about this! #artcollectingispersonal ⁠✨⁠Image: Installation View of Cornelia Baltes, Lazybones, (April 2 - May 7, 2022).

Through the three-dimensionality in the layering of materials and color fields, the work thematize sensory experience as such. To this end, Knoebel condenses form tension and color saturation to the highest intensity and creates individual worlds of imagination on the part of the observer through the visual exploration of their interplay."⁠⁠...and then started to acquire this piece to the private collection of our lovely collectors home in Hamburg. #becauseartmakesadifference ⁠⁠#artcollecting #journey #art #contemporaryart #kunst #kunstberatung #fineart #ludorffgallery #privatecollection #velvenoir #interior #interiordesignlove

#virtualartiststudiovisit -> this time in #HongKon #virtualartiststudiovisit -> this time in #HongKong 💫We are truly excited to introduce you to the artist Joanne and her inspiring yet powerful abstract works. For one of our collectors, we sourced and acquired a large-scale painting last year from her at her Hong Kong-based gallery.In her work, Joanne's daily grounding meditation and spiritual practice also extend to her development of abstract, color-field paintings. By infusing her energy and qi into meticulous movements during the creative process, she continues her spiritual practice that enhances her intuition, mindfulness, and definition of personal utopia. Just as the essence of abstract art involves the utilization of colors and forms to enable dialogues on a metaphysical level, her spiritual abstract paintings may also invite the viewers to investigative read and make personal identifications. #artcollecting#velvenoir #behindthescens #contemporaryart #art #kunst #fineart #painting #joannechan #abstract #kunstwerk #artiststudio #insights #behindthescenes

#HappyFriday #HappyCollectors <3 ⁠⁠We love s #HappyFriday #HappyCollectors <3 ⁠⁠We love seeing this abstract #painting from Scott at our lovely collectors home in #Vienna! ⁠⁠Scott is a Canadian painter, trained in architecture and urban design and although he did not pursue architecture as an artistic career, his painting subject matter continues an exploration and meditation upon urbanization and tensions between manufactured landscapes and spiritual fulfillment. He plays with the emotional triggers of colors, mostly by slamming together unlikely, even decadent, contrasting hues and then encases those associations, the metonymic readings possible, with harsh, cutting and calligraphic blackish strokes. ⁠⁠This project was completed in collaboration with the interior design team of STEININGER. ⁠⁠#fridaymood #photooftheday #fridayfeeling ⁠#interior #artist #artwork #artoftheday #velvenoir #artcollecting #kunst #kunstberatung #kunstsammeln #contemporaryart #abstractpainting #steininger

Virtual #Artist Studio Visit with Duscia in #Belgr Virtual #Artist Studio Visit with Duscia in #Belgrade ⁠This piece captured our attention from all other works. The work from Dusica is centered on the idea of movement: of words, bodies and energies. Engaging in a highly physical painting process and using a combination of artistic and engineering materials, she composes abstract works full of action. This artwork is a perfect example - from her latest Series Scribble! ⁠⁠#art #artwork #kunst #kunstwerk #kunstberatung #artconsultancy #artcollecting #artisttowatch #painting #atelier #serbia #abstractart

#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 ⁠ ⁠
#ArtistToWatch⁠ ⁠ A while back, we had the ple #ArtistToWatch⁠ ⁠ A 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 ⁠ ⁠
