Because it is such a mixed bag, you'll undoubtedly pick favorites more quickly than if the set was more homogeneous. Abstract expressionism always jumps out to me...especially if I'm art shopping on my computer. So, I immediately fell for the paintings by Montreal artist Claire Desjardins. Her canvases are filled with interesting forms and exuberant color. Here are my picks from her Anthro oeuvre, all of which are acrylic on canvas...
First Ting and Urban Blue
I also loved the one and only piece by Christopher Stott, called Good Times. But I was disappointed to discover that it's a giclee. A giclee is a reproduction so I certainly wouldn't classify it as "one of a kind" and I don't think Anthro should have included it in their offering.
Finally, I liked this oil on canvas called Moss by Yangyang Pan.
So, I'd really like to hear about your favorite artists and/or pieces in Anthro's One of a Kind Art set. Did you like anything that you saw? Do you think they will sell the art or do you think people won't be willing to purchase semi-expensive artwork from a national retailer like Anthropologie?
Love Claire's work..fabulous!! I am off to check out Anthro's other artwork.
