WORLD-CLASS ART FOR YOUR HOME

Since the 1970s, Marina Abramović has been the defining voice of performance art and is widely regarded as one of the most influential artists of our time. Internationally, her name stands for an art that is not merely observed, but experienced on an existential level. The edition Maria/Marina brings together key threads of this extraordinary body of work in a particularly accessible form. Conceived as a homage to the opera icon Maria Callas – toward whom Abramović has felt a deep connection since childhood – the work translates her often extreme, physically demanding practice into a distilled image of profound emotional intensity and timeless clarity. In doing so, the edition makes a globally museum-established artistic position collectible in this form for the first time.

Gerhard Richter is regarded as one of the most important contemporary artists—and as a master of stylistic diversity. For more than six decades, he has continuously reinvented his work: from photorealistic paintings and blurred images to large-scale squeegee abstractions. His style remains in constant flux—and his presence on the international art market is as powerful as ever.

Inspired by Andy Warhol, Ai Weiwei reimagines the self-portrait for the present day. Self-Portrait Embroidery combines the visual logic of digital imagery with the tactile density of intricate hand embroidery. What once functioned as a gesture of resistance is here rendered personal – as a self-image of an artist whose work is inseparable from his biography and his stance. This body of work presents him not as the author of a symbol, but as its bearer: vulnerable yet unyielding, marked by the traces of state violence. Around 460,000 stitches lend the portrait a palpable materiality and a renewed immediacy – an image that not only represents Ai Weiwei’s unwavering stance, but embodies it as lived experience.

Katharina Grosse is among the most important painters of the contemporary era, known for works that radically extend beyond the canvas into space and architecture. With Untitled, she translates this expansive practice into a concentrated edition. The works retain the dynamism of her spray technique – gestural, transparently layered, in constant motion – while bringing it into a format that condenses and intensifies its energy. The result is a pictorial space that extends beyond its own boundaries, distilling Grosse’s central idea: color not as surface, but as event.

Peter Doig’s painting is shaped by atmosphere, memory, and inner imagery. In House of Music, recently presented at London’s Serpentine Gallery, he for the first time explicitly connects these elements to a key source of inspiration: music. A fundamental aspect of his practice, previously of a more personal nature, thus moves into focus. As his oeuvre expands to include this dimension, the lion – a recurring motif in his work – appears here as a calm, almost iconic presence, situated between memory, cultural symbol, and conceptual condensation. A body of work in which personal reference, painterly depth, and international exhibition relevance converge.

As a musician, Ed Sheeran fills stadiums; as a painter, he fills canvases—with the same rhythm and energy that made him a global star. In his Cosmic Car Paintings, the influence of Jackson Pollock meets the unmistakable signature of an international musician—and the attitude that sets him apart: proceeds from his exhibition raised over $1.25 million for the Ed Sheeran Foundation, giving children access to musical education—through art with an impact beyond the frame.

Candida Höfer, one of the most important students of the renowned “Becher class” at the Düsseldorf Art Academy, is renowned for her monumental photographs of interiors, where architecture and atmosphere are held in striking equilibrium. Her images capture the encounter of an award-winning photographer with spaces steeped in history and meaning. With photographic precision and poetic clarity, she reveals what makes these places unique — creating collectible works of rare depth and lasting relevance.

The flourishing beauty of nature finds its fullest expression in The Secrets: with impressionist and pointillist touches, Damien Hirst expands the wide spectrum of his work between realism and abstraction with remarkable fluidity. Inspired by his 2023 series The Secret Gardens Paintings, he captures the untamed grace of wild gardens through a style imbued with the very essence of blooming landscapes. As nuanced as they are raw, as delicate as they are overwhelming, as subtle as they are opulent, Hirst’s meadows unfold before the viewer—an invitation into picturesque realms where the magnificence of untouched nature becomes an immediate, almost tangible experience.

Damien Hirst's latest series merges the fascinating approaches of the visionary conceptual artist and painter. Each of the works, ranging from abstract to photorealistic, is based on the dynamic process of action painting, infusing each of the pieces with pure ecstasy and capturing the untamed nature of the Atlantic. During the creation of his sensational “Cherry Blossoms” series, Hirst was inspired by random splashes of paint that leapt onto the surrounding canvases. The fluorescent sprinkles on a gray background marked the beginning of a spectacular series of works radiating the spirit of the British coast that has shaped the iconic artist.

Incarnation of beauty and transience if ever there was one, the butterfly is also a recurring theme in Damien Hirst’s work. In his very latest series of five pieces, the former master of the Young British Artists explores a topos that challenges our understanding of Western history. These screen-printed works, covered with a fine sheen, each bear the name of a queen of Indo-Persian, Byzantine, Chinese, Japanese, or Ethiopian origin. In this shimmering piece, a subtle mosaic composed of countless butterfly wings, Damien Hirst pays tribute to these queens—exceptional, yet largely unknown to the general public: Nur Jahan, Theodora, Wu Zetian, Suiko, and Taytu Betul.

The artwork is an outstanding example of Takashi Murakami’s ability to reshape and reinterpret traditional Japanese art styles with a contemporary outlook. The cartoonish flowers that line the titular river lend the work a poignant and playful atmosphere, symbolizing both the beauty and transience of life.

Pop Art, kitsch, commercial – the iconic balloon animals of Jeff Koons have been called many things. Above all though, these world-famous sculptures are a bold tribute of the life-affirming power of art.

In his Polaroids, the photographer and artist Nobuyoshi Araki captures fleeting moments of love, sexual expression and lust staged against an ever-present backdrop of mortality and existential struggle. Araki is one of the most influential Japanese photographers of all time, utilizing stark contrasts in both color and theme to span topics as diverse as fertility, existentialism and the fleeting nature of being. He is especially renowned as a chronicler of the times, whose works have shone a light on the changing sexual attitudes of his society.

Whether draping islands in pink floating fabric or wrapping landmarks like the Berlin Reichstag in swathes of cloth, the vast installments of Christo and Jean-Claude are instantly recognizable. Together, they created monumental artworks that will live long in the memory.

Marc Quinn is one of the most enduring figures of the “Young British Artists” movement, a stable of creatives who revolutionized the contemporary art world in the 1990s. His opulent floral arrangements create a sensory overload, straddling the line between art and science.
