Discover Stunning Paintings for Sale in Bengaluru – How You Can Transform Your Spaces, with our Customized Abstract Paintings for Homes in Bengaluru

Introduction – Why art matters to our space? and, How can I learn more about art?

When we decide to put up art in our space, especially when we are speaking about buying abstract art in Bengaluru, maybe going to art exhibitions in Bengaluru and interacting with various artists in Bengaluru, we need to choose what we feel will best suit our space probably spending more time and going a bit deep, diving into the meanings and thematic excellence in the work or foreseeing what kind of energy it will bring out to furnish the ambience with that palpable particular energy.

There can be many a variation in what we would like to call best art to buy, but this is no objective statement. It is all a play of subjective opinion and informed choices which can and will be different, each to their own. There will however be a similarity or identity in tastes that one can clearly make out and demarcate to characterise a home in entirety or even room by room as the theme may go.

The important thing to notice here is the aspect of a very personal nature of dialogue being present here between the art and the viewer. A viewer becomes a buyer because of many factors and reasons that convert into a sale and we shall discuss more on this in the upcoming segments of this article.

When we visit art exhibitions in Bengaluru, to buy abstract art in Bengaluru, we interact with a lot of different kinds of artists in Bengaluru who will invariably have different experiences and different sensibilities. When we interact with them, we can come to know more about what happens in their art studio in Bengaluru, how they work, what the process of putting up an abstract painting for sale in Bengaluru entails and when we are looking for abstract paintings for home in Bengaluru or canvas paintings in Bengaluru in general, it becomes very important that we go for art exhibitions in Bengaluru and art studio(s) in Bengaluru and get to know the local market and people better in order to gain more knowledge, learn more and stay more informed in the scene and also learn what is going around.

How we choose our art thus becomes important once we know what kind of art is out there on sale or what abstract paintings for sale in Bengaluru are available. There can be multiple leads even at art exhibitions in Bengaluru. As far as the business of canvas paintings in Bengaluru is concerned, it doesn’t need to be limited to art studios in Bengaluru, it can be anywhere where abstract artists in Bengaluru are, even globally and therefore abstract artists can work from anywhere and see anywhere as much as we see abstract art galleries in the luxurious segments of urban India today.

Art studios in Bengaluru are popping up fast and there is so much talent which basically implies there is a lot more to choose form for potential buyers who are looking for corporate office paintings or paintings for home in Bengaluru whether as part of their art collection or as home decoration paintings. Abstract artists in Bengaluru have always been a great mix of the cultural roots and urban realism. Of western narrative power and our cultural richness, of western trends and local spiritual supremacy and so much more in the seeking.

In abstract art galleries today as well as in art studios in Bengaluru, we see an immensely fast-changing or rather proliferating environment of free-thinking, independent individuals who are there to create art with a purpose with no boundaries of limiting beliefs or restricting mindsets.

How we choose our art or how we choose paintings for our homes and why it is important?

 There can be multiple factors affecting or influencing what makes us choose the art we want to put up in our homes in Bengaluru when we see abstract paintings for sale in Bengaluru by abstract artists in Bengaluru at art exhibitions in Bengaluru or canvas paintings in Bengaluru in general. Some of the factors that matter in choosing abstract paintings for our home is as follows:

1. Likes and Dislikes to start with becomes an organic as well as powerful factor to determine what kind of art we end up even looking at to choose form or rather what resonates with us out of which quantitative and qualitative supremacy or resonance and skill in our eyes respectively, takes priority in getting chosen. For example, if one likes only landscapes and not portraits, only landscapes stand a chance in potential buying categories as far as that person is concerned to put up paintings in their home. If one is interested in abstract paintings for sale in Bengaluru, one may drop by an art studio in Bengaluru like Sparsha by Radhika maybe to pick up some abstract paintings for home in Bengaluru.
2. Trust factors and authenticity assurance become crucial psychological factors and tangible factors in terms of an authenticity certificate or a real signature etc. to buy art. It is similar to a power of a brand. Do we want an original or a duplicate that looks like the original. Nothing better, worse or more or less about it, it is primarily about a preference at the end of the day.
3. The money factor also very much comes into p[lay when talking of the business of art in sakes because of course one has a budget in mind and would like to own something which is well within those peripheries and the purchasing power to be optimised but at the same time gives one the ability and power to cherish that which is bought for the best price and a dear work.
   From an investment point of view of course it comes to be of paramount importance to find a wavelength for the work and investment to be worth it together – again there is no under-pricing and overprizing in my eyes, there needs to be the need felt from the client and of the client feels it is worth it, he/she goes ahead and buys the painting.
4. The aesthetic of the home or corporate office paintings or the space in general that we are looking for could definitely play a role in the kind of art we pick because of our walls in our homes are all for example white or peach in colour, we may like a painting that has a lot of white in it but we may not go ahead and buy it for the simple reason that an abstract painting for home in the same colour as the wall holding majority of the space may end up merging with the wall itself not standing out and that may be a preferewnce to say no to it. On the contrary there could also be a client who says they will frame it thick in black and still buy it and put it up. SO these are also some personal prerogatives as far as the spatial aesthetic is concerned in picking up a painting to either harmonise and tie up into the space or stand out flamboyantly in a space.
5. Energy, vibe and ambience become very important in decision making as to how we choose the right paintings for home or to choose from the abstract paintings for sale. The energy we want to create in the home is what we will look for in abstract paintings for sale too whether it be at an abstract art gallery in Bengaluru or in an art studio in Bengaluru for example. This will determine how we fundamentally feel inn the space and it is too important a factor to ignore in a space which we inhabit every single day and to be seeing the abstract painting at home every day one needs to feel that deep sense of relationship in order to sense and experience that energy, vibe and create the ambience one wants successfully in the space.
6. There are six factors according to the British Auction House Sotheby’s that make a great painting or establish the value of a painting (art in general) – Reference source: The Value of Art Series by Sotheby’s.

Here I am speaking about abstract paintings in particular –

1. Authenticity – How true / original is the abstract painting is
2. Condition – What condition it is delivered to you in, for viewing or once bought, irrespective of whether the painting is old or new, this is crucial
3. Rarity – How rare is the painting and are there prints, copies, versions and so on of it.
4. Provenance – What has been the history of ownership and lineage of buying associated with the abstract painting – this establishes credibility and adds value to where the abstract painting is priced at as well as its position.
5. Historic Importance – what role it has played in the history and evolution of society, if it is an old painting
6. Size
7. Fashion / Relevance
8. Subject Matter
9. Medium and
10. Quality of the art work

Therefore, these are some of the factors that can help us value a painting and then think about all our parameters / criteria and then go ahead and choose or buy an abstract painting in Bengaluru or for that matter abstract paintings for sale anywhere and art also anywhere.

The past, present and future stature of art and why the evolution is important? 

In order to choose the right kind of paintings for home in Bengaluru, it is important to learn about the history of art even briefly is fine but it’s important. Why? Well, because when we know how art and systems have evolved over time, we also understand where the art we are both creating as well as viewing today, comes from and that in turn helps us estimate much more example where the art we see today is possibly going to take us in the future as well as more tangible aspects such as the financial markets of the business and how it’s been growing for us to estimate important factors such as ROIs for future and channels for the future either for creation, exposure, sale or resale.

When we speak about buying abstract art in Bengaluru today, many people understand that there is multiple types of variety, sensibilities of varied sorts as far as abstract artists in Bengaluru are concerned and art exhibitions that we go see, like and buy from today as abstract art in Bengaluru.

But how did it all start and maybe not just here but globally? In nutshell, the art industry in India started as an industry post-independence with solo studios few from pre-independence and the well-to-do having galleries to support, promote and help artists nurture and reach their work out to the country and world. What was until medieval times since ancient times an integral part of our architecture our religion in channels of temples and part of our homes with the ways we built them and kept them suddenly got sorted below the sciences and business which was never the case.

In ancient India and until the times when we started bowing our heads to the imperialists, we pretty much had no hierarchy in subjects in terms of psychological compartmentalisations that arts is last and useless and if you are brilliant and of value, you must do science.

Art has always been an integral, inbuilt medium to express, life, history, glory, bravery and valour in this nation with no hesitation and absolute abundance. Even today when we visit amazing religious places such as Adalaj, Khajuraho, Konark, Hampi, Tanjavur, Belur, Halebedu and so much more, we see the sculptures, paintings, murals, architecture, manuscript illustrations, storyboards of our itihasa (history) carved out in stone and we stand in awe.

Slowly as we became slaves both to the Turkish / Persian invaders as well as the British Imperialists, they were only sought on erasing any sense of pride that we had or any memory of our culture that we would relish and worship which is why art came down the ladder and descended to become a luxury and not a necessity or an essential in the lives pf the common peoples. As artists started doing art as full-time professions, many of them suffered, were poor, were badly treated and slowly in the west art movements started to emerge as folk styles were resurfacing in India through the untouched parts of India with our tribes and interior forest lands that hadn’t had the British or the invaders reach them to dilute and influence the enriched existing art.

Great artists such as Vasudev Gaitonde, S.H.Raza and architects such as B.V.Doshi started to create a revolution of promoting art to be something one can do full time with passion and devotion. They showed us what surrendering to craft meant while in the west there was a whole lot of documented movements from the baroque, rococo, renaissance to the classical era to the unconventional realisms, impressionism, cubism, surrealism, futurism, dadaism, minimalism, suprematism, contemporary painting, modernism, post-modernism, concept-based art, abstract expressionism and so much more we can go about.

While we had concepts such as Bindu come up with S.H.Raza’s works we also had Gaitonde’s deep but intense abstracts that would immerse people with such effect. With our folk styles such as Madhubani, Phar, Warli and much more, we resumed learning Indian art styles too and produced many great artists locally and globally. As time passed, more galleries came up and so did more art schools and artists. Galleries started hosting artists, promoting them, giving them exposure with huge networks and artists even went abroad and collaborated with overseas players. As artists started working with galleries the market became bigger, patrons became more and interest grew amongst art enthusiasts, collectors and artists to create more, buy more, and treasure more!

With significant increase year on year as a national market, today we see way more galleries than we ever have in the nation, we see more students joining art schools and we see more institutions being interested to offer art and design programmes to aspiring artists.

Art galleries, many run by art collectors or art enthusiasts themselves work as not only venues for example to hold art exhibitions in Bengaluru, or to put up abstract paintings on sale in Bengaluru which people can buy as abstract paintings for home in Bengaluru or corporate office paintings in Bengaluru and so on, but also as art bodies that function with a purpose of being a springboard to facilitate the organisation, promotion and marketing for an artist’s work whether eminent or upcoming and they deal in the art works for the artist or on behalf of them. At the same time there are also art studios in Bengaluru that work independently as well with clients or architects and interior designers.

Today, transactions happen between creator and buyer or gallery and buyer if there is gallery representation. This is because abstract artists in Bengaluru can work in a few ways – either with their art studios in Bengaluru, or being hosted by an abstract art gallery in Bengaluru where they can have their abstract paintings in Bengaluru for sale in the art exhibitions there in Bengaluru and therefore clients can come there and buy abstract art in Bengaluru.

Alternatively abstract artists in Bengaluru even if they have their art studio in Bengaluru can collaborate and work with interior designer, interior decorators and architects in their projects for any requirements of abstract paintings for homes in Bengaluru or corporate office paintings in Bengaluru and anywhere pan India or globally as the case may be.

Therefore, we can go buy from any of these channels and see what kind of abstract paintings for sale are there in Bengaluru with all these options to choose from. Whether it be art exhibitions in Bengaluru we want to go to, or abstract art galleries in Bengaluru we want to go to or whether it be abstract artists in Bengaluru from their art studios in Bengaluru where we want to go to, it is our preference and prerogative.

Once I buy the art I like, how do I keep the experience going for so many years as I have heard of families owning the same art for generations?

Art is not something we buy just for a value in vanity and a beacon of power, status or investment alone. It is for the feeling, many a time we choose the art we want with an instant resonance and impulse or going with our instinct that this is going to make us feel wholesome and fulfilled in our space.

The main reason why people very very rarely regret why they buy an artwork is because the dialogue between for example an abstract painting and me as a viewer turned buyer is very different, most of the time cannot be articulated or put into words, cannot be explained wit logic or rationale most often. This is the nature of art whether we care to admit it or not. It is beyond tangible realms to explain what it means to the people who choose not only to buy it but also the creators.

Many a time, as abstract artists in Bengaluru, though we feel happy when our abstract paintings for sale in Bengaluru sell and find a home that we feel they were made for with all the heart, we somewhere do sense the attachment to the abstract paintings that we too feel as creators towards them. That too is a very special feeling. Therefore, whether it be any art work that one buys with all heart, there can be no possibility to get so bored of it that you regret buying it – very rare after meeting the criteria and parameters and informed decisions that we have stated in this article.

There is a recurring pattern in the dialogue both between people and their art as well as the spatial dialogue between the space and the art it holds. Each day we may feel different when we come sit in front of an abstract painting at home, but the painting will respond irrespective of what we expect, if we are open and when we have that much love for it, What we feel for an abstract painting is pretty much all and more that it feels back for us. In my experience, this has been my realisation.

Many times we just sit across an abstract painting and gaze at it thinking different things and maybe something comes through or the visual impact just manoeuvres the thought process or it immerses us n thinking about what we see rather than what we were thinking seeing it in the first place. That is the power of abstract paintings and that is how eventually the relationship between something so profoundly non-figurative evolves into something so deep with us figurative, real people.
