How To Choose Abstract Sculptures New York For Any Setting

By Brian West


One area that many art collectors tend to stay away from is the sculpture. They may be unwilling to buy abstract sculptures New York for a variety of reasons. If, however, you start taking a closer look at these items you will quickly see that they can be a fantastic addition to any collection. Here are some tips you can use on where to find them and how to select the ones that meet your taste without destroying your bank account.

Many people think that these items are very expensive but this is not always the case. If you want a very large piece by a well-known artist you will likely be paying quite a bit of money for it but smaller pieces from lesser-known sculptors can actually be surprisingly affordable.

One of the first things to consider is the setting that the piece will be going into. Is it indoor or outdoor? How large is the space? Do you plan for it to be set on the floor or on a piece of furniture? Having some basic ideas about what you are looking for will help you narrow down your search and find the perfect piece more quickly and easily than you may have thought possible.

Size and the fame of the artist are not the only factors that determine how much a sculpture will cost. One thing that can affect how much something will cost is what that item is made out of. Bronze will usually have a higher price tag since it is hard to work with. Unlike stone, it cannot be carved and instead needs to be cast from a mold. This difficult manufacturing process means that the price tag will also be higher.

Picking statues for private collections can simply be a matter of finding what suits your taste best but choosing options for an office can take more consideration. Often these pieces become an investment and can also reflect your company and the way they do business. If you are serious about adding artwork to a company space, you may want to think about consulting a professional art buyer since they have information and experience that you will find helpful.

There are many places that you can go to find these items. Galleries are only the first step although they can be fantastic for looking at a piece up close and in person. You might also want to check out libraries, museums or other areas where you can view pieces although buying a specific sculpture may not always be possible.

Of course, you may find that you like the way a particular sculptor's work looks but not find a piece that speaks to you completely. In that case, you might want to consider researching the sculptor and finding out if they have other pieces. You may also be able to speak with the sculptor about commissioning a piece instead.

If you do get to the point where you are purchasing a piece, don't be surprised if an artist is unwilling to negotiate on price. Often they have commissions to pay if they are selling through a gallery. There may also be costs for materials and the cost of labor since these pieces can take quite some time to complete. When you do end up securing a sculpture you can sit back and enjoy the beauty that these items can bring to your environment.
