We still focus on artists emerging from art schools across the UK. We still look closely, select slowly. Many of those we introduced early now sit within our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/masters\"><span class=\"s3\">Masters<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s2\"> section, created to hold continuity as their work and voice develop.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">For collectors, \u201cemerging\u201d is sometimes framed as risk. For me, it has always been about care, attention, and discernment, and the possibility of being alongside something as it grows.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Recent insights from the Art Basel &amp; UBS report echo what I\u2019ve seen for two decades: the most active and resilient part of the market lies where we\u2019ve always worked, with original artworks under \u00a35,000, selected with intention.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">What matters most is the long arc: watching a practice begin, deepen, shift materials, change scale. As with any true work, the value shows itself in time.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The work we show proves its financial value once the wider market catches up. <a href=\"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/press\">Our reputation for investment<\/a> has come not from chasing trends, but from recognising artists whose integrity endures.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">New Blood Art has always rested on that principle, and on the belief that collecting can be a thoughtful, personal act.<br \/><br \/><\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/artworks\/collection\/eyJhcnRpc3QiOltdLCJtZWRpYSI6W10sInN1YmplY3QiOltdLCJ0YWdzIjpbXSwic29ydCI6InJhbmRvbSIsInRlcm0iOm51bGwsImNvbGxlZ2VzIjpbXSwiZ3JhZHVhdGlvbl95ZWFycyI6W10sInJhbmRvbW5lc3MiOjczMTE4LCJtYXN0ZXJzIjpmYWxzZSwic2l6ZSI6MCwic2hhcGUiOjAsIm1pblByaWNlIjozNTAwLCJtYXhQcmljZSI6NTAwMCwibWluV2lkdGgiOm51bGwsIm1heFdpZHRoIjpudWxsLCJtaW5IZWlnaHQiOm51bGwsIm1heEhlaWdodCI6bnVsbH0=\"><em><span class=\"s1\">Explore works under \u00a35,000<\/span><\/em><\/a><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><em>Artwork: <a href=\"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/artist\/orlanda-broom\">Orlanda Broom<\/a>, Masters Artist at New Blood Art<br \/><\/em><em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">\u00a9 Orlanda Broom, used with permission<\/em><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recent insights from the Art Basel &#038; UBS report echo what I\u2019ve seen for two decades: the most active and resilient part of the market lies where we\u2019ve always worked &#8211; original artworks under \u00a35,000, carefully selected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":29312,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[542],"tags":[536,539,479,277,540,538,537],"class_list":["post-27479","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dispatches-from-the-field","tag-art-collecting","tag-art-market-2025","tag-contemporary-art","tag-emerging-artists","tag-financial-vs-cultural-value","tag-independent-galleries","tag-online-art-sales"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27479","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27479"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27479\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29318,"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27479\/revisions\/29318"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29312"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27479"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27479"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27479"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
