Art Wanson Gallery : Art, just a click away!
No need to pace up and down art galleries, to chase after art dealers and auction rooms, to hunt out more or less exceptional paintings, sculptures and photographs, the Web offers an incomparable showcase and easy access to precious works. The latest site of our Transpyrenean neighbours: the Art Wanson Gallery. A new point of reference for lovers of classical and contemporary bronzes and sculptures. Click, discover and buy...
Add Mona Lisa to the basket?
"The least that can be asked of a sculpture, is that it keeps still!"
Would Salvador Dali’s witticism have the same funny echo in these hours of virtualization of artwork? Nothing is less sure... Nowhere and everywhere at the same time, paintings and sculptures are in fact blossoming on the web, leading to a massive movement for the democratization of art. Far from the endless kitsch reproductions of Mona Lisa or the Nympheas, it is really the original works that these 21st century galleries are offering to novices and connoisseurs alike.
From virtual to real
Art Wanson Gallery should from now on be included among these new virtual art galleries. With a click, you will discover an ambitious selection, although still a bit limited, of bronzes, sculptures and antique pieces from their private collection, acquired over the years, from art merchants, antique dealers, artists and salons. The added value? The certainty of acquiring an authentic piece, most of the time, signed by the artist, with a serial number, all this with straightforward access. Like Amazon.fr or the umpteenth private sale, you "add to your basket" the piece of your choice and pay through the secured Paypal system. And that is all it takes for art to enter into the realm of the possible... For all of you who however, still assert your right to see and touch works in person and can not get used to this dematerialisation of access to art works, then you are better off heading for Marbella to get a more down-to-earth art gallery experience!
