Cultivating an art collection to display in your home is not only for trust-fund families. Art has always been and will always be subjective. Here are some ways to broaden your horizon and upgrade your décor.
Art Walk
Most major cities host a monthly art walk within the city center. You will find dozens of galleries filled with art from bright, young artists whose works may one day hang in the Met. You will be supporting these fresh artists in their infancy while saving some money on your collection as well.
Student Showcase
Art colleges will host student showcase nights where budding artists can display their works. You can connect with the artists and arrange a commission or purchase if you find a piece that captivates you.
Gallery Openings
Gallery openings are generally announced in print and online. Keeping your eye out for gallery openings near you can allow you to check out the up-and-coming talent.
