Returning for it's second year, IKEA presents ART EVENT. a versatile collection where interesting and acclaimed artists from different parts of the world were asked to create original pieces which were then turned into limited edition prints.
"Drawing by hand is a fascinating art form that reminds us of what it means to be human in a world driven by rapid technology and digital development. These cartoons are full of sensuality and tactility, it's almost like the artist left his fingerprints on the surface of the paper. " Henrik Most, creative director of IKEA.
The 12 motifs in ART EVENTS 2017 mediate a variety of personal expression, techniques and stories. Different mediums, subjects and styles were used; everything from pencils, colored pencils, ink, chalk and charcoal to watercolor, gouache and pastel. The posters are printed on thick heavyweight matte paper with a tactile surface. Sold at IKEA stores and online in April/17.
