CONTEMPORARY ART GIFT IDEA: A PAINTING

 

An art lover knows how to appreciate a painting as long as it matches his or her taste. So you need to find out about your loved one's preferences to make sure you make the right choice. Start by determining the best option between an abstract painting and a figurative paintings. These are two opposing art forms that cater to different personalities.

Abstract art is more of an interpretation of reality. The artist gives free rein to his creativity to bring feelings to life using colors and shapes. It is the ideal gift for an art lover who likes to exercise his imagination. 

With this type of painting, he will be able to renew his interpretation with each contemplation. On the other hand, figurative art is a more concrete representation of reality.

The painter here is inspired by human models, objects or places to produce works that are more or less similar to what he sees. This is an art gift idea suitable for people with a rational mind. Moreover, one can appreciate this type of painting even without having to interpret it. Whatever painting you choose, make sure the theme and colors match your loved one's interior.


 


CONTEMPORARY ART GIFT IDEA : A SCULPTURE

A sculpture is above all a decorative object that allows you to give your home a unique look and an artistic touch. It is also a form of expression that speaks volumes about its owner. Giving a sculpture to an art lover is therefore an excellent option when you know his or her tastes and the image he or she wishes to project.

Depending on the preferences and the interior decoration, you can choose a classic, contemporary or modern work. But you must take into account certain criteria such as the size of the sculpture or the material of manufacture of the art object. A small sculpture remains discreet while bringing its touch of originality. If your loved one is the type of person who attracts attention, you may want to choose a larger piece.


Also keep in mind that the size and weight of a sculpture will determine the support on which it will be placed. Statues are traditionally made of stone or wood. But if you are looking for a contemporary art gift idea, you can opt for a metal sculpture. They fit very well in modern interiors and are particularly resistant.
