Artists to Watch in 2019
Artsper presents its selection of artists in the spotlight in 2019. You still have a few months left to check out this year's best artists.
Were you moved by the paintings of Francis Bacon or Bernard Frize at the Centre Pompidou? Why not treat yourself to an artwork by these multi-talented artists?
In other news, the Picasso Museum showcased the work of two of the greatest artists of the 20th century, Alexander Calder and Pablo Picasso. Masterpieces by these timeless artists were honored in the exhibition.
For the Louvre Pyramid's 30th anniversary in March, Jean-René, or JR, revealed a new side to it in an incredible trompe l'oeil entitled 'Le secret de la grande Pyramide' (the great Pyramid's secret). To do so, he designed an enormous photographic collage (his largest to date). The entire Napoleonic court was covered over, including the fountains and mini Pyramids. This Herculean work marked the artistic year; ephemeral but immortalised in sublime photographs.
Now for some highlights in the art market this year, the FIAC once again broke its attendance record and featured the work of Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama on the legendary Place Vendôme! Meanwhile, Banksy's 'Devolved Parliament' canvas was sold for the modest sum of 11.1 million euros. In the context of Brexit, this highly engaged painting depicts the British Parliament occupied by chimpanzees. Banksy certainly shows no signs of slowing down.
One of the many attractions of the contemporary art market is that it is constantly evolving. This year, some trends have emerged in the art world. Up first, women's art and gender equality. Mainly dominated by men, the art market is opening up to parity, as illustrated by the success of several visual artists such as Jenny Saville, Julie Mehretu, Rachel Whiteread, Carole Feuerman, Sophie Calle, Charlotte Falcini and Satr. The second trend: African art. It is no coincidence that the fair Also Known As Africa (AKAA) was such a huge success this year: all eyes are on this emerging art. And last but by no means least, street art. For several years now, urban art has been appearing all over the walls of the world's capitals and artists' canvases. Some of the most famous names? Banksy, Shepard Fairey (Obey), M. Chat, JonOne, L'Atlas, JR and Miss Tic; all very popular amongst collectors.
