Photo art – a modern classic

Photo art has been immensely popular for the last 20 years, and can now be said to be a classic in both traditional homes and the trendiest art galleries. Photography as an art form was accepted during the 20th century and can today be said to be a modern classic in the art world. There are few art forms that are as multi-faceted as photo art. Stylish posters and pictures with photo art can convey a variety of messages. Dear Sam has a wide selection of photo art "affiche" posters. Everything from a cute little rabbit to a photograph of endless nature, or why not a poster with an zoomed-in photograph of an architectural work. Posters with photographic motifs are a matter of course for any self-respecting picture wall.

Famous photo art that touches the soul

Everyone likely agrees that photo art can be deeply touching. Photographic works of art have long been a popular feature of exclusive art galleries and museums around the world. Photo art can be divided into different types and approaches. These include: conceptual photography that illustrates an idea. This is often seen in advertising, where images are used to convey a clear concept, often with actors or props. You can also say that when it comes to photography, the artwork is more than the image itself. Conceptual photo art is common. At Dear Sam, the poster called The American Dream Poster is a good example of conceptual photo art. Documentary photography is another style of photography that provides a simple and accurate picture of people, places, objects and events. The Golden Earring Poster shows a simple and straight image of a woman in black and white; a photo art poster with a documentary photography approach. With insight into the approach, idea and starting point of a photographic work, it is usually easier to understand why photo art touches us and has become such a popular feature in many picture walls.

But this is also a common occurrence in photo art. At Dear Sam you can find a wide selection of photo art posters featuring super famous people, so-called icons. Including Greta Garbo, Brigitte Bardot, David Bowie and others. Several of these iconic black and white pictures can be found here.

Decorating with photo art

Decorating your home with framed photo art posters is both attractive and fun. There are few interior details that give such an overall effect to the interior of the home as framed photo art posters. Pictures with photographic motifs can convey many different styles, which means work depending on motifs will be the perfect choice for a picture wall. A picture wall composed solely of photo art pictures is a popular feature in a modern home with Scandinavian decor. Something that many people miss is that photo art pictures often nicely complement a wall of abstract art. By mixing posters with different art forms you can create an interesting and dynamic picture wall. Dear Sam has a large selection of photo art in colour or monochrome black and white. A picture wall with mixed pictures and posters, with some black and white images is a very popular interior detail, both for professional interior designers and for those with less experience who wants to be sure that they are decorating on-trend.

Which picture frames best suit pictures with photo art?

Museums and art galleries usually use black picture frames as they give a more graphic effect, i.e. more focus is put on the design and the design itself makes a clearer and more central impression on the wall. Depending on the interior style and the colour tones to be found in your interior, your posters can also be framed with white or oak picture frames. White picture frames and oak frames give a softer impression. With white or oak picture frames, your photo art posters receive less direct focus. If you want to stay on the safe side when creating a picture wall, our tip is to use the same colour on all picture frames.
