Multiple

Multiples refer to a series of identical art objects produced in limited editions according to the artist's concept. These works are specifically created for sale and are often considered the most affordable and accessible form of contemporary art. What sets multiples apart is their lack of uniqueness, which is typically seen as essential in traditional artworks. Instead, they offer value and enjoyment while making contemporary art more widely available.

Surrealism

Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.

Mono-Ha

Meaning School of Things, Mono-ha originated in Tokyo in the mid-1960s. Instead of creating traditional artwork, the artists of Mono-ha used different materials and their natural properties to express dismay at the industrialization taking place in Japan at the time. The movement gained international attention and is now a widely respected form of art, known for its emphasis on the relationship between materials and their environment.
