What living artist (painter, sculptor and that type of genre) is the best to collect?

Because of aesthetics, because of anticipated appreciation in value, or both?

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

My favorite living painter is Wu Guanzhong from China (because of both aesthetics and value).
Mr Wu was born in Jiangsu, China in 1919 and he is still alive and kicking at the age of 91 years old.

Some of Mr Wu's artworks:

Wu Guanzhong is the creator of a new painting style and one of the few Chinese artist (another Chinese artist is Xu beihong) who can blend both Chinese and Western elements. Wu's artworks are influenced by master artists such as Paul Cezanne, Pablo Picasso and Vincent Van Gogh, as well as Chinese artists such as Shitao.

Mr Wu has a practical approach to art and a strong believer in "Art for the masses".
He is a very generous Artist that is willing to return art to the people; he has left nothing for his family. Over the years, Mr Wu has donated most of his masterpieces worth more than US$50 million, to the Shanghai Art Museum and Singapore museum.

Amanda Dunbar an American artist deemed as a child prodigy at the age of thirteen and who at the age of sixteen sold out a solo exhibit in Dallas at the value of $500,000.

She made her national television debut on the Oprah Winfrey Show and from there featured in magazines, newspapers and even named "Person of the Week" on ABC World News for her inspirational story and philanthropy work.

She's over the few years as an artist donated near $1 million for causes for women and children and art workshops for children.

She even has a line of "Precious Rebels Art Guitars" that she especially designs, a bit out of the box for a painter to use an electric guitar as a canvas. She also has a book on her paintings which you can find on Amazon, "Guided by Angels - Divinely Inspired Paintings by Amanda Dunbar."

Your investment in art should be that which moves you the moment you see the artwork whether it be a sculpture or painting and for me, this young woman still in her twenties, her paintings, they move me.

On her web page you will find this quote on her Manifesto: "Art is Power."
