Art — a Last Vestige of Value in Volatile Times

SPECIAL ADVERTORIAL FEATURE

Take the work of Paul Wunderlich. When he started as a painter in the late 1940s he was a rebel with a cause, pointing out obvious problems in society. His name was first put on the map of the international art scene when his exhibition at the New York Museum of Modern Art in 1968 was censored because of the explicit sexual content, causing a huge scandal.

He was once again and not for the last time way ahead of society with his ideas of equality and freedom. He finds his inspiration in European as well as Roman-Greco art history, but his work is excitingly edgy and contemporary in content and of outstanding skill.

Today he has become a true classic. His enormous body of work includes almost every medium from paintings, sculpture, fine prints, works on paper to jewelry and is without comparison. In the field of sculpture alone, an art historian compared Wunderlich to Max Ernst as the only other artist that has a complete separate and independent body of work in sculpture and painting.

The news of his retirement from the medium of original paintings at the age of 82 had a big impact on the art community and market. Not only did the prices for the few remaining paintings skyrocket but Paul Wunderlich’s collectors are now more determined to hold on to these rare and valuable works, especially in times like these, when art seems to have become the last solid asset to own.

This is why it has become so difficult to obtain original works by Paul Wunderlich and the Hart Gallery has become one of the last resources worldwide thanks to their personal relationship with the artist. Paul Wunderlich is one of the over hundred exceptional artists from Europe and America that The Hart Gallery represents. More than a common style it is the quality in each individual work that Eva Hart is looking for. Whether it is a painting or sculpture by one of the contemporary artists or a Fine Print by a modern classic like Picasso, Chagall or Miró, Eva Hart looks for the artist’s passion for their ideas, their skill and career path. Art that follows a trend or was made to sell has no room in her selection. This way she guarantees for her discerning clients that every work she sells in the gallery holds its weight for generations, not only in quality but also in value. For more information contact the gallery or visit their website.
