    Fine art is a category of art comprising works with purely aesthetic purpose, as opposed to applied art, which serves a practical function.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    In 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.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

    Many 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.

    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, 2024
    The 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.

    In art, a print is a work produced multiple times by transferring an image from a plate to another surface. Making a print can be as straightforward as pressing a painted surface against another surface or as complex as triggering a chemical reaction to create an image. Artists embrace different techniques to yield various effects: some printing techniques, like etching, emphasize lines, for example, while others, like lithograph printing, are better for creating soft textures. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of art prints.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A relief, in art, is a sculptural form where sculpted patterns or images remain attached to a solid background. Reliefs give the illusion that the image was raised out of the background plane.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A reproduction in art is a copy of another original work of art. This may be a painting, drawing, print, or other, but there is no creative process involved and they often have very little value unless they are limited.

    African art is painting, sculptures, masks or installations that originate from the African continent. Masquerade, metalwork, sculpture, architecture, fiber art and dance are particularly popular artistic expressions in Africa.
