We hope you all had an amazing weekend - we are starting this week with our weekly art quote, this time coming from Charles Saatchi on contemporary art and collecting. "Few people in contemporary art demonstrate much curiosity. The majority spend their days blathering on, rather than trying to work out why one artist is more interesting than another, or why one picture works and another doesn't."

What´s your opinion about #artcollecting? Do you agree with Charles Saatchi?
We would love to hear #becausewecare - comment below.

#happy Sunday everyone, since so many have been as

#happy Sunday everyone, since so many have been asking us - here our story behind @velvenoir ” Our story started back in 2013, in the Australian Outback. Traveling from Alice Springs up to Darwin, exploring the land, people, and culture of Australia was an inspiring journey. And right there where aboriginal artists were creating artworks on self-made canvas out of cotton, with paint out of the plants growing in the Australian desert – the feeling when looking at the body of work connected with me very deeply. It´s hard to describe – but I guess anyone who collects art out of passion or found an artwork that belongs to them, understands me right here. It was there in the middle of nowhere where I decided to make contemporary art from career and indigenous artists accessible to anyone, while personally supporting my clients with all the resources and amazing contacts collected over the past years. Since 2017 I’ve been working with amazing artists, art advisors, curators, galleries and consultants on selected projects together.” – Alexandra Schafer @lexandra

#artist introduction on Friday Happy Friday everyone - today we would like to introduce you to Andrea’s work, where she demonstrates the importance of color in contemporary geometric abstraction. In a non-preconceived order, stripes of fluorescent colors are followed by other colors that play a counterpoint. This turbulence alternates with white stripes that speak of emptiness and plenitude. An oval as the center of the triptych presented here invites us to meditation. Fried was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1972. She obtained a degree in Business Administration from the University of Buenos Aires in 1996. While working in this field, she attended workshops with artists Juan Doffo and Sergio Bazán. In 2011 she sold her company, and distanced herself from her profession and devoted all her time to painting. She has had numerous individual and group exhibitions; among them, “Dispersed Meditations” at the Consulate of Argentina in New York, “Sincromatica” at the Museo de Arquitectura of the City of Buenos Aires, “Todos por 1-11-14” at Centro Cultural Recoleta, and “Suma + Arte” at Rubbers Gallery. In May of 2019 she will participate in the exhibition “Personal Structures”: “Open Border” at the European Cultural Centre, within the “Venice Biennial”. Her works are in the Museo Nacional de Arte Decorativo’s collection in the City of Buenos Aires.

#interiordesigners and projects speaking our language, this time we would like to share the project from Fernanda Marques @fernandamarquesarquiteta

A large-scale Nuno Ramos artwork brings a new sense of energy to this cosy art corner. One of Brazil’s most celebrated contemporary artists, Nuno Ramos primarily produces sculpture and installation works with unorthodox materials, including petroleum jelly, glass, and soap. The purpose of art, he has said, is to “insert ambiguity into a world that has become directional and monotonous.” He has also produced abstract works on paper inspired by poetry and other texts, and an installation of three architectural structures intended to represent the houses that the artist has lived in, surrounded by pools of clay or mud as if in the aftermath of a natural catastrophe. Ramos is also a poet and his visual art frequently incorporates textual elements.

#artist introduction on Thursday to keep you up-t

#artist introduction on Thursday to keep you up-to-date within the primary market, we would like to introduce you to this emerging artist, Kathrin Sonntag - her photographs, objets trouvés and films mostly presented in the context of installations address the conditions of perception, observation, and cognition. Kathrin Sonntag plays with the paradoxical cultural history of photography, a medium that can depict “objective reality”, on the one hand, and manipulate the reality of the image, on the other. With a wink, the question “Can I believe my eyes?” is always present. The triptych “Conversation Piece” plays with the idiosyncratic analogy of the shapes of two things that actually do not belong together. During the process of categorization, which is characteristic of perception, new contexts of meaning arise in a “dance-like” way and, of course, the question of whether the motif might have been manipulated worms its way into this humorous moment of irritation. This magical play of visual rhymes and the ensuing new and unexpected meaning is continued in Kathrin Sonntag’s “Atlas”-series. Found and manipulated image material is set in a playful relation to her own motifs. The object-like feel of the photos created by folding alludes to the shape of a book, a picture atlas, in which the gaze of the viewer can “browse” endlessly.

#artist introduction on Wednesday Time for us to introduce you to another artist and his work we find truly inspiring. Tom Fecht has embraced photography as his preferred medium. He has since produced an extensive body of landscape and portrait work. In recent years, Fecht has became known for his innovative night photography and monochrome seascapes that focus on natural phenomena hidden in time and invisible to the naked eye. His large-scale minimalist works hover between the physical world and the invisible aspects of the universe – magically transforming nature through the profound depths of time. His recent series DARK MATTERs push his photographic adventures to the edge of quantum physics.

As of 2012, Tom´s works have been limited to unique vintage prints. His work has been exhibited in museums such as Neue Nationalgalerie and Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin; Hamburger Kunsthalle; Bundeskunsthalle, Bonn; Royal College of Art, London; Helmhaus Zürich; Museum DKM, Duisburg; Museum Folkwang Essen; MuCEM Marseille; Musée des Beaux-Arts LAAC, Dunkerque and Musée des Beaux-Arts de Liège and New York Public Library. It is regularly shown at TEFAF Maastricht and New York. His work is included in both corporate and private collections across Europe, North and South America, and Asia.

#FriezeLondon2020 With Frieze Week traditionally

#FriezeLondon2020 With Frieze Week traditionally marking one of the busiest times in London’s art calendar, due to Covid-19 - the fair has taken place in a hybrid digital-physical event. While the main tents in Regent’s Park may be closed- some galleries across the U.K. capital are hosting smaller exhibitions, with a range of notable artists will be spotlighted online. Even though we couldn´t see the art in person and connect with the gallerists and artists, yet we still found it was a great online fair to explore the latest and hottest art on the market. Check out our #IG Story for more. What was your favorite artist being showed at the fair?

#artist introduction on Tuesday It is difficult to classify Milan´s work into well-known categories. Perhaps it is not essential whether the concepts are images or objects, whether it belongs to a group of formal devotees of geometric abstraction … It is important that through the color, by the space he opens another space and it allows us to perceive movement, the intensity of light, proximity to the shadow, offers the experience of churning time. Milan graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague (1993-2000), in the studio of monumental works by Aleš Veselý. In his early works, he also painted photographs of light reflections of various objects and their shadows. This was the color-abstracted abstract composition that recorded the relationships and effects of real-world subjects.
