The Art of Collecting Sculpture: A Guide to Mastering the Fundamentals Collecting sculpture is an endeavor that demands both courage and investment. The scale, materials, and craftsmanship involved often necessitate meticulous care and ongoing maintenance. The word "sculpture" originates from the Latin - sculpere, meaning “to carve.” Today, however, sculpture encompasses a vast array of techniques—from 3D printing and weaving to assemblages of found objects. Before embarking on your journey as a sculpture collector, consider the following: - What is my budget? - Where will this sculpture be displayed? - Is the chosen location exposed to the elements? - Are there any weight restrictions or logistical challenges? - Will I require a permit? - Are there potential conservation concerns that will require attention? #ArtrouteSA #Sculpture #Collector

Studio visits this week with the incredible Elsabé Milandri. She gracefully embraces the unpredictability of the creative process, exploring through playful inquiry - thinking with words, and feeling through the gestures of mark-making. Her artistry transcends observational drawing, nebulous hues, and the visual lexicon of epistemology, navigating the delicate synapses between ideas, figures, and texts. #ArtrouteSA #Womenartist #Luxury

"When buying from an artist/maker, you’re buying more than just an object/painting; you are buying hundreds of hours of failures and experimentation. You are buying days, weeks & months of pure joy. You aren’t just buying a thing, you’re buying a piece of heart, part of a soul, a moment of someone’s life. Most importantly, you’re buying the artist more time to do something they are passionate about." - Anonymous
