Here at Newbloodart, we like to share collecting tips. As we often say – buying at the start of an artist\u2019s career, when the work is on the cusp of gaining recognition and value, is the perfect time to buy an artist\u2019s work \u2013 it will be never be more affordable. More difficult to get just right is knowing exactly when an artist is on that cusp.<\/p>\n

With art dealers vying for Fontaine-Wolf<\/a>\u2019s attention – and her work appearing in a\u00a0 BBC2 Art series called ‘Show me the Monet’, finally premiering this coming Monday –\u00a0all the artist’s works will significantly increase in price. We can now confirm that Fontaine-Wolf’s work will see a guaranteed rise in price of 50% by Monday the 9th. So, for example, you could pick up\u00a0‘The Eris Sisters’<\/a> now for \u00a31500, and find that it\u2019s priced at \u00a32250.00 by this Monday the 9th of May. Or if you like ‘Judith 10′,<\/a>now worth \u00a3790.00, you’ll find it valued at \u00a31185.00 within the week.<\/p>\n

Fontaine Wolf<\/a>\u2019s work explores themes of femininity and beauty, \u201cwhich have always both captivated and terrorized\u201d the artist. This core fascination takes on many realizations, from explorations of the way cultural influences shape personal image, to the ways in which a self can be extended through attenuations and mitigations that come to be essential to identity.<\/p>\n

Fontaine-Wolf’s paintings are characteristically luxurious and economic in terms of their painterly tact. This is one of those rare and timely opportunities, so don’t miss out!<\/p>\n

Fontaine-Wolf explains some of the interesting influences and intentions behind this triptych: “This is a very large piece which is party inspired by Francis Bacon\u2019s use of colour and panels \u2013 it takes snapshots of bathing figures and weaves them together using different coloured segments. This series plays with contrast \u2013 using the basic rough texture of the raw canvas against a smooth high gloss resin. These textures serve to amplify and illustrate the contrasts of the theme itself which is inspired by the way the body creates islands in the water – visible sections blend into submerged areas, barely visible yet intrinsically tying the structures together. Much in the same way as we all do in day-to-day life. We create images – identities \u2013 some of which we keep on the surface, visible for everyone to see while others remain submerged.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
