Finding the Right Paintings for You
Painting is an art form that has spanned innumerable cultures, with artists using the medium to tell stories, explore and communicate ideas and express themselves. To bring abstract paintings, landscape paintings, still-life paintings and other original paintings into your home is to celebrate and share in the long tradition of this discipline.
When we look at paintings, particularly those that originated in the past, we learn about history, other cultures and countries of the world. Like every other work of art, paintings — whether they are contemporary creations or works that were made during the 19th century — can often help us clearly see and understand the world around us in a meaningful and interesting way.
Cave walls were the canvases for what were arguably the world’s first landscape paintings, which depict natural scenery through art. Portrait paintings and drawings, which, along with sculpture, were how someone’s appearance was recorded prior to the advent of photography, are at least as old as Ancient Egypt. In the Netherlands, landscapes were a major theme for painters as early as the 1500s. Later, artists in Greece, Rome and elsewhere created vast wall paintings to decorate stately homes, churches and tombs.
Today, creating a wall of art is a wonderful way to enhance your space, showcase beautiful pieces and tie an interior design together.
No matter your preference, whether you favor Post-Impressionist paintings, animal paintings, Surrealism, Pop art or another movement or specific period, arranging art on a blank wall allows you to evoke emotions in a room while also showing off your tastes and interests. A symmetrical wall arrangement may comprise a grid of four to six pieces or, for an odd number of works, a horizontal row. Asymmetrical arrangements, which may be small clusters of art or large, salon-style gallery walls, have a more collected and eclectic feel.
Download the 1stDibs app, which includes a handy “View on Wall” feature that allows you to see how a particular artwork will look on a particular wall, and read about how to arrange wall art. And if you’re searching for the perfect palette for your interior design project, what better place to turn than to the art world’s masters of color?
On 1stDibs, you’ll find an expansive collection of paintings and other fine art for your home or office. Browse abstract paintings, portrait paintings, paintings by emerging artists and more today.
Questions About A Johansson Art
- What type of art is KAWS’s art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024Many people consider KAWS’s art type to be Pop art. The style first emerged in the 1950s. In stark contrast to traditional artistic practice, Pop art’s practitioners drew on imagery from popular culture, using things like comic books, advertising, product packaging and other commercial media to create original paintings, prints and sculptures that celebrated ordinary life in the most literal way. In his work, KAWS similarly appropriates pop phenomena like Mickey Mouse, the Smurfs, the Simpsons and SpongeBob SquarePants. Shop a selection of KAWS art on 1stDibs.
- Is mandala art folk art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Yes, mandala art is folk art. The definition of folk art is art that reflects the sociocultural characteristics and values of a particular group of people. Mandala art fits this definition due to its association with the Hindu and Buddhist faiths. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of folk art from some of the world's top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Fine art is a category of art comprising works with purely aesthetic purpose, as opposed to applied art, which serves a practical function.
- What kind of art is Western art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Western art can reference art made in the American West, typically at the end of the 19th century. It can also reference any type of art that comes from the “west,” meaning a region that shares a European tradition, including the United States and Canada. On 1stDibs, find a variety of original artwork from top artists.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024In contemporary art, conceptual art is a movement that began in the 1960s. Artists producing conceptual art assign more importance to the idea behind the art than to the piece itself. An example is Joseph Kosuth’s One and Three Chairs, a piece consisting of a real chair, a photograph of a chair and the dictionary definition of the word chair. When the work was displayed, Kosuth included instructions for any chair to be photographed and then displayed beside its image. In this way, the chair itself is not the artwork. Rather, the art comes from examining the way the object, image and words provide competing and complementary definitions of what a chair is. Find a large selection of fine art on 1stDibs.
- Where do art collectors buy art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024Art collectors buy their art from a few places. They may attend auctions to bid on works or attend gallery exhibitions to purchase pieces. Some arrange to buy art through dealers, while others shop on trusted online platforms to find paintings, prints, sculptures and other works. Explore a diverse assortment of art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Fine art denotes work of aesthetic value but no functional purpose, whereas decorative art is both visually appealing and functional.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
The term contemporary is applied to art by 21st-century artists; modern art refers to works created from the1880s and through the 1960s.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between an art dealer and an art broker is who owns the artwork involved in the transactions they facilitate. Art dealers often own the works directly. They purchase them from artists, other art dealers or individual owners and then sell them to buyers. An art broker is someone who connects potential art buyers with sellers without owning the art themselves. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of fine art from some of the world's best galleries and dealers.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2019
The main difference between Art Nouveau and Art Deco is that the former is detailed and ornate, and the latter is sharp and geometrical. When the movement started at the end of the 19th century, Art Nouveau was heavily influenced by nature and the curved lines of flowers. Art Deco, which became popular in the beginning of the 20th century, was inspired by the geometric abstraction of cubism.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024The difference between modern art and contemporary art comes down to age. Contemporary art refers to art produced by artists who are still alive or were active during the 1960s and later. Modern art is the term for artworks made between 1850 or 1860 and 1960. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of modern and contemporary art.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024The style of Keith Haring's art is Pop art. This style emerged in the 1950s, when artists first began drawing on popular culture when producing original paintings, prints and sculptures. Haring found his inspiration in cartoons, adapting the style for his paintings, prints and murals that addressed the universal themes of death, love and sex, as well as contemporary issues, like the crack cocaine and AIDS epidemics. Find a range of Keith Haring art on 1stDibs.
- What are sculptures in art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022In art, sculptures are three-dimensional works of art made by hand or with various tools and machinery. Bronze, marble, plaster, wood and stone are among the most traditional materials for sculptures. However, artists may also incorporate found objects, paper, fabric and other items into their work. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of sculptures.
- What are the functions of art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024There are a few potential functions of art, and the specific function of a particular piece depends on its subject matter and medium. In some cases, art tells a story from history, everyday life, mythology or religion. Other times, its purpose is to inspire people to think about or feel something about the message that it conveys. For some artists, the function of art is to express religious devotion or to memorialize the image of someone who is notable. Art also enhances the visual appeal of the spaces where it is displayed. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of fine art.
- What are the methods of art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024Methods of art are ways that artists produce their works. You will typically see methods of art referred to as forms of art. Some methods or forms of art include painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture and photography. Shop a large selection of fine art from some of the world's top galleries and dealers on 1stDibs.
