Blink and it will be December before you know it which means gift giving shifts to the top of most of our to-do lists. Sure, you can gift someone a sweater or a tie but is that something they really want? Dive a little deeper and more thoughtful with the gift of art. Art doesn’t always make it onto someone’s priority list so what better gift to give them than something they wouldn’t buy for themselves. We’ve rounded up 10 modern art gifts in the form of prints, wall art, and sculptures that anyone on your list would love to receive.
Moon Wall Art 16″ by Bronsen \\\ $600
While you can’t give someone the stars, you can give them the moon… er, a beautiful, sculptural moon to mount on the wall. This handmade moon floats off the wall with its hand textured and painted surface that will definitely evoke happy thoughts and out of this world dreams for any space lover.
Modular Art Piece (Set of 2) by Bend Goods \\\ $95
Put creativity into the hands of the recipient with these Modular Art pieces from Bend Goods. You pick from Curved or Straight sets of two in any of five colors, and let them customize the pieces into any configuration they desire. The sets can be mixed and matched, as can the color, to create their very own piece of art.
Jenny Holzer Protect Me Tea Towel by Tate \\\ £17.50
This may seem like a simple tea towel but this one is adorned with the words of artist Jenny Holzer. It can always be used as a tea towel but with a little extra money it could be framed and turned into a piece of art. It’s an inexpensive way to turn something simple into a piece of custom art!
Interlacing Hexagon Portal by Ben Medansky \\\ $3800
This piece by Ben Medansky spans an impressive 14.5″ wide by 22″ which means its interlocking geometric presence will make a bold impression. The ceramic sculpture looks different from every angle with one side featuring a rusty red color and the rest a milky white glaze.
Hazy Sun 01 Designer Poster by Paper Collective x All The Way to Paris \\\ $49
A collaboration between Scandinavian Studio All The Way to Paris and Paper Collective with Danish design brand Menu, this eye-catching poster features a muted rainbow gradient of the brightening sky. The impressionistic take on a hazy sky would make the perfect addition to anyone’s blank wall.
Element Kraft print by Tom Pigeon \\\ $62

Open Mountains by Jason Bauer and Romina Gonzales \\\ $580
