Guest Curator: Kumi Contemporary

Our collection primarily consists of established Contemporary artists known for creating artwork that possesses both visual allure and art historical significance. Striking the delicate balance between these two aspects can be unexpectedly challenging. At times, artworks may captivate the eye but lack depth, while in other cases, they may convey a profound narrative but lack aesthetic brilliance. However, we truly enjoy it when these two qualities harmoniously converge. Artists like Takashi Murakami have masterfully embraced this fusion for decades, resulting in his status as one of the most influential artists of his era. His work not only appeals to collectors seeking pieces that illuminate a room and create a visual spectacle but also resonates with those aiming to build a noteworthy family collection featuring blue-chip artists. This broad appeal has consistently driven the increasing value of his artwork over time. Likewise, artists such as Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, and Jeff Koons within our collection have also achieved remarkable success. Their ability to produce visually stunning and conceptually meaningful works explains why their names are highly coveted and represent prime investment opportunities for serious art collectors. Established in 2008, Kumi Contemporary connects some of the most established artists and galleries in Japan. With exhibitions across the globe, from New York to LA, London and beyond, Kumi Contemporary champions Japanese art, supporting its transcendence from once private spaces in Japan into the rest of the world.

Southern charm

"Time lasts a long time and life surely more than a million years. And always in summer," sang Nino Ferrer in 1975. These words still ring true today as they convey the charm and welcoming ambiance that emanates from the South of France. Our artists, whether they have settled there or have only been there for a short time, marvelously illustrate the known and unknown treasures of this European paradise. This week, we're feeling a bit sentimental and proud as we present a selection of works celebrating the beauty of Southern France, through those who paint, draw and live it.

What Collectors Have Their Eye On

Want to know what collectors are really after? Packed full of collector-coveted pieces ranging from painting to collage and prints, this collection features works in wishlists and sitting in baskets of curators, collectors, and art mavens alike (so don't wait if you spot something you love). Whether you're a fan of Pop Art, Abstract Expressionism or Minimalism, or simply keen to discover something new, this is your chance to think like a curator and peruse works collectors really have their eyes on. Keep your finger on the pulse The art world is constantly changing, and we’ve got our finger on the pulse to bring you the pieces that everyone is talking about. In the last decade or so, Scandinavian style has had a huge influence on everything from interior design to the art world, and this clean and minimal style can be observed in various pieces throughout the collection. Illustrative styles have also been rising in popularity, which means that you’ll also find bright and bold prints of subjects that range from human figures to colourful plants. For those just beginning their art journey as well as the most seasoned collectors, picking up a trending piece is a great way to add value to any collection. Browse our selection to find some of the most exciting artists practising today and discover the perfect piece for you. You can narrow down your search using our range of filters that allow you to specify the orientation, size and price. ## Artists to watch Using a unique blend of typography and light sculpture, Rebecca Mason is a contemporary British artist who has been making waves in the conceptual scene. Her neon words are contrasted against dark backgrounds and poetic text, making them both eye-catching and thought-provoking. Through her work, Mason makes commentaries on increasingly modern society and our responses to this in terms of love, money, and our relationships with each other. For those who are looking to get their hands on some photography, we recommend the work of Gina Soden, a British photographer who has gained recognition from prominent awards and institutions including the BBC. She takes an architectural approach to her work, exploring the interiors of derelict and abandoned buildings that are decaying yet beautiful. There’s a sense of melancholy running through these artworks that view the past through a nostalgic lens, placing emphasis on grand and opulent structures that have since lost their sheen. One of the major leading figures in the contemporary art scene, Bruce Mclean is an exciting artist who refuses to be limited to just one medium, creating everything from sculpture to prints. It’s easy to see why his work is so popular, as he takes a provocative and inquisitive approach to his subjects that makes his art visually appealing and conceptually engaging. Mclean is most famous for his abstract works that make use of bright colours and a variety of different techniques in a way that is avant-garde while retaining a wide appeal.
