A shiny new year is just around the corner, and we’re excited to see all the latest ideas in framed art come to life on our walls. From dopamine-inducing colors to heirloom-inspired motifs, 2024 is poised to include an array of visual styles that feel both fresh and timeless. Get ahead of the curve (and inspired for your new-year refresh!) with our forecast of 2024 art trends.
1. Pop Futurism Art
What it is: Bold and bright, Pop Futurist art is a progression of the Italian art movement from the 20th century. We love its mix of sci-fi and cyberpunk motifs.
How to style it at home: This art trend is perfect for a contemporary or eclectic space. Arrange Pop Futurist pieces next to urban and space-themed artwork to round out this far-out aesthetic.

2. Color Theory Art
What it is: Color Theory explores how different hues work together and affect our mood. Artists like Mark Rothko and Piet Mondrian preferred color over figuration in this way to express meaning.
How to style it at home: Think about your home’s individual spaces and how you want them to feel when you step inside. Remember, artwork featuring vibrant colors can energize a space while neutral shades ground and create a sense of serenity in a room.
Selected works:
3. Contemporary Surrealism Art
What it is: Young artists are keeping this 20th-century avant-garde movement alive by blending present-day themes and traditional symbolism. Lincoln Seligman and Elo Marc lead the pack with their playful, dreamlike interpretations.
How to style it at home: Let Contemporary Surrealism art take center stage as the statement piece or focal point in your space. To create a striking vignette, we like to place them on mantels or the wall of an awkward corner.
Selected works:
4. Americana Art
What it is: Americana art highlights the country’s charm, nostalgia, and past. From black-and-white portraits to rural landscapes, this trend is beautifully patriotic.
How to style it at home: This trend is a good way to bridge the gap between old and new in your space. Warm, and rich, Americana art is perfectly styled with botanical and animal prints in modern farmhouse and traditional interiors.
Selected works:
5. Antique Aesthetic Art
What it is: Like the Americana trend, art that has an antique aesthetic emphasizes culture and heritage but with a focus on old-world objects and technology. We’re talking antique maps, airplanes, and cars.
How to style it at home: Hang your antique-inspired art in a traditional room like the study/library, living room, or office. We also recommend displaying your pieces using our wood mount art frames to truly nail the time-honored look.
