Big Works for Beautiful Homes

Bigger may not always equal better. However, when adding the finishing touches to a newly renovated room or when tackling high ceilings, you simply must go big or go home with your choice of artworks. Decide on your next acquisition using expert tips from Hidden Gallery, who are on hand to help you find the most valuable, high-quality artworks to fully enhance your space.
Why go big?

Hanging a carefully selected, large work of art in your home offers an effective means of effortlessly curating your space. A stand-out statement piece, confidently positioned as the focal point of a room, will elegantly tie together all of your furnishings in one sophisticated fell swoop. There is an instant wow-factor and luxurious appeal to a large work of art, which absolutely does not need to break the bank.

It is important to not rush into buying an artwork just because of its size. Take our advice – if you are choosing to invest in a big artwork, remember that it will naturally come to define whichever space it inhabits. You don’t want to gamble your money on an artwork with no heart, designed to just fill a wall. An artwork by an established household name will instead bring the prestige of a museum to your home and will become a talking point rather than just an extra piece of décor.
Which artists should I buy?

Big works of art by eminent Modern and Contemporary artists, such as Matisse, Dalí or Emin, are intentional and masterfully executed. For instance, Pasmore is celebrated for uniquely blending the disciplines of art and architecture, meaning that his more monumental prints are purposefully large and are therefore amongst his most dazzling, sought-after works. Blake was inspired by glossy and glamorous advertisements, which is certainly reflected in his stunning screenprints. Artworks from his iconic ‘Sources of Pop Art’ series are incredibly popular and evoke the glitz and glamour of vintage billboards.

Top tip: Consider acquiring your very own original exhibition poster. When we talk about artists’ posters, we are not referring to mass-produced merchandise that can be bought at a museum gift shop. We’re talking about rare artefacts, actually created in direct collaboration with titans such as Chagall or Lichtenstein. These slices of art history represent exceptional value as they feature an artist’s most iconic imagery and tend to be large.
