BOOMER MAGAZINE | FIRST EDITION | THE NEW ARTIST In the last hundred years humankind has seen unprecedented innovations and changes- from skyscrapers to moon landing to social media to human rights to Art. In this very moment in our society everything moves really fast, time doesn’t seem sufficient anymore, artists seem to find their path much harder, the ongoing changes create a need for a continuous state of Transcendence. The aim of this publication is to find out what’s the trend in contemporary art and to create a dialogue between the artists and the viewers. Editor’s Note. As we’ve mentioned previously, the aim of this publication is to connect artists with a wider audience and to find out what’s the trend in contemporary art. While most of the art collectors are looking to invest in very established artists, buying a work of art from a not so known artist is not a bad investment at all. For this publication we have chosen Picasso as a role model so let’s have a brief look at he’s artistic development in regards to our publication.

“THE NEW ARTIST”

While in Paris in 1905, Picasso was no different from any other artist and most of he’s works were bought for a purely decorative purpose and not as an investment. One of this works was “Young Girl with a Flower Basket”, purchased by the young collectors Leo and Gertrude Stein for some 200 francs. Over a century later that same work was auctioned for $115 million dollars, an amount that neither Picasso or the Steins would have ever imagined and here we come to my previous remark- you can’t go wrong investing a reasonable amount of money into a work of art that you like, you will be able to enjoy something that you genuinely had a desire for and you might end up with a million dollar artwork in your collection with no effort and no major risk, something that develops on its own, purely on the artist’s own hard work and artistic development. Don’t take my word for it, let’s briefly look at some contemporary artists. Jeff Koons, works valued at some $20000 in the 80’ are now worth over 20 million dollars, the same with Damien Hirst, Andy Warhol, Jean Michel Basquiat, Tracey Emin, David Hockney etc. While we look at this great artists we need to keep in mind that great art can be anything in any form, it doesn’t have a pattern or a standard - From childlike lines to colour spots spread over a piece of canvas to realistic portraits or landscapes to a bed installation to a video to a formless idea- ANYTHING CAN BE ART! Ok, so far so good but what’s the new trend in contemporary art, who is “THE NEW ARTIST”? Everything and anything is the new trend and anyone can be “THE NEW ARTIST”. As we look into my previous mentions, any kind of art style and artistic practice can be very successful so... is not about a particular style or technique, it’s all about the artist- the ability to overcome hard times and critiques while carrying on doing ART. Action is the foundational key to all success.- “Pablo Picasso”.

Alpana Mittal Tejaswini Tejaswini is an accomplished and versatile artist working in multiple media. Her major contribution to the world of Art is her creations using beads on canvas. Tejaswini creates intricate pieces made with perler beads on canvas. Her interest in this unique medium began in 2008, when she purchased an art kit, as a Christmas gift, for her daughter. As her little girl created small birds and flowers using the beads in the kit, the artist started visualizing different patterns on the canvas with these beads and realized she found the perfect texture for her designs. Born into an art loving family, Tejaswini was exposed to art and its appreciation from early childhood. She chose Fine Arts as her major and has a M.F.A. from CCS University, India. She also has an Arts Management diploma from New York University.

Tejaswini has displayed her artwork globally in exhibitions and has been widely acclaimed for her multifaceted style.
