Art in Black and White
It's not only artists who are attracted to black and white in art, many find the simplicity of such artwork appealing. Below, you'll find many instances of sharp contrasts, creative line work and strong juxtapositions. Each work has something unique for the audience to consider. Separating these works from the regular mix of colourful art posts emphasizes their character and introduces a new layer to study.

What caught my eye at the Gagosian...
Art at the Gagosian is beyond the reach of most but it's still worth paying attention to. Who's selling what is the question everyone in the art market wants to know. By looking at some of these works you can get a good sense of what is popular. Many would be happy to have these in their home but they are not for everyone. If you studied art history many pieces will be familiar to you. But even if you didn't you can still appreciate the variety and the skill with which they were created.
