Curated Collections

“Light plays an integral role within my work and there is an ambiguity between the precision of photographic apparatus and the structured randomness of the organic.”

They bring to mind the soft fluidity of Georgia O’Keeffe’s organic abstractions. There’s a sense of being compelled, mesmerised: the fascination that brings you in closer to look at nature or at art

When emerging artists first join the gallery, it’s often at the very beginning of their career. That’s why you can find original work by these brilliant artists at accessible prices at New Blood Art.

Check out these abstract works from this week’s curation. Many have a diffuse energy to them, and would make a brilliant focal point to a room. Lively colours and organic shapes make for rejuvenating optical adventures.

Congratulations to Charlie Yates whose painting ‘Safari Lodge’ has recently been sold in the Gilson Grey Gracy Gala event in an auction which raised an amazing £121k for both Edinburgh and Glasgow Children’s hospital.

The annual Frieze Art Fair, a major exhibition in Regent’s Park London, is a cross-section of contemporary art, with a myriad of galleries present in their booths, showcasing a selection of the work they’re currently representing. As a gallery that has applied the principles of a boutique physical gallery to the online sphere, taking a look at what’s on display makes for an interesting time.

An imprint, an outline, an impression: artists create from the past and for it. There tends to be another kind of space for memory in summer – time spent outdoors, travelling, exploring: food for reflection in the colder months. 

Sophie Ashby, of Studio Ashby referenced NewBloodArt as a go-to place to begin or build on an art collection that you love, as well as where to source show stopping larger pieces at affordable prices. 

The innovative technique Sarah MacFarlane has developed to create her work is immediately striking. The ruched surface of her landscapes comes about through using layers of dried paint to build up dimensions, collage-like.

Brilliant graduates continue to arrive at the gallery, and it’s a joy to curate them.

This week’s emerging artists show fantastic sensitivity to the possibilities of their medium – applied in very different directions..
