There are many interesting new contemporary artists, but many work from home and only work with certain galleries, so it may be challenging to find an artist that you really like. When you want to start collecting art work, you are faced with the issue of finding art by new contemporary artists that you like at affordable prices. Finding new contemporary artists is not all that hard when you know where to look.
Instructions
1. Go to local art fairs and shows. These are held in downtown historical areas, parks, and recreational areas. They are usually announced in the local newspaper, or even on TV. Some fairs are so well-known that everyone in your community knows about it.
2. Visit your local art district. Every city has an area where there are art galleries, classes and art studios. You can visit some of the galleries, or better yet visit the artist’s studios. When you visit the studio, you will get a better feel for the type of work the artist does. You will usually get a better price too and you have the added benefit of creating a rapport with an artist you like.
3. Many of today’s contemporary artists have their own blog or online gallery that you can browse. These are interesting places because you can also find out your artist's inspiration, where he studied and what types of things he likes to paint.
4. Take a vacation in a city or town that is known for its artists. There are many towns and cities around the world where artists from different countries congregate, give workshops, teach and have studios.
