Dear reader,
With a lifelong passion for art history, on this art and jewelry blog I share with you my encounters and reflections as anindependent appraiser for the past 20 years, to help you with your buying and selling projects. How does the art market work? Which artists and talents are worth following?
Since 2021, a new generation of artists under the age of 40 has been shaking up traditional codes. The use of new digital tools projects us towards artistic universes in the physical and/or virtual world. With the arrival of artificial intelligence and NFTs, everything is set to change, transforming our habits towards what we call the metaverse and "web3 ".
Let's meet the artists of the Riviera and be inspired by our region's cultural heritage. Let's revisit emblematic sites and major exhibitions organized in the region, to recharge our batteries with the Great History of art. Sharing knowledge also perpetuates the transmission of our skills of excellence.
We look forward to seeing you at our next events, "Autour d'un café, le rendez-vous des collectionneurs" and Masterclass "culture web3 ". Contact me by following this link: events.
