Looking for artwork


Chad is Dead

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to make my condo look nice and am currently looking for some artwork to hang up. I would prefer some urban/graffiti art but am also open to new ideas. I don't want to spend alot of money and kind of looking for people who knows someone who can make something cool looking w/out me spending hundreds of dollars. So any ideas of people or places to go. I actually found one piece at kohls that I bought since I had 30 percent off that I really like.

Something isn't right with that sentence. :p Do you want "cool" or nice?

 

The centerpeice in my living room is a pair of 3'x2' blueprints of a Porsche 904 GTS and its engine. Vintage racing photography/art is something I collect, so I have some prints from 60's-70's Le Mans races, along with a 50's BMW motorcyle ad. Also featured are a pair of mountains scape photos that I took, and an event poster from the wifes work at the Zoo.

 

None of this is what I'd call "nice", with the acception of my pastel print of an 8CTF and Silver Arrow. My tastes dictate that, if you hang something up, it aught to be interesting enough to look at. There is another realm of thought that wall art exsists only to "bring together a room" and make everything else look good. I'm sorry, but I'm not spending money on a huge print of 2 colors because it goes with my couch.

 

Serious advise: Get on ebay and look for what you want, they have a category for it, I'm sure.

very Robert Rauschenberg - esque

 

 

 

I am a fine arts graduate. if you need help with finding out what "Art" you are looking for, shoot me a PM. Amongst the art i made, i am even more enthused with art history (1800-2007)

 

honestly, if you want real art... the cheap stuff isnt worth having.... and the stuff worth having isnt cheap.... thats why i reccomend posters or prints (framed nicely)...

 

 

some big names to check out... ( late modern )

 

Willem DeKooning

Robert Motherwell

robert rauschenberg

Hokusai Katsushika

 

 

also, im sure Gmoney or myself could be commisioned to appease your art needs.... well maybe at least he may be able to, i am extremely busy
