Modern Prints

What You'll Find in the Modern Collection

This is our widest collection — it pulls together everything from the early 1900s to work created this year. That includes flower market prints, abstract geometric compositions, mid-century graphic design, Bauhaus-influenced typography, and original pieces from contemporary artists working with Kuriosis directly. The common thread is modern sensibility: clean lines, intentional colour palettes, and design that looks deliberate on a wall.

If you already know what style you are after, the subcollections will get you there faster. Our abstract prints focus on non-representational work, the Bauhaus collection covers the design school's distinctive geometric language, and flower market posters are one of the most popular categories for living rooms and hallways.

Choosing Between Paper and Canvas

Most modern art prints work well on both formats, but the effect differs. Fine art paper — 225g matte, uncoated — gives graphic work and typography the sharp edges they need. The colours stay flat and precise, which matters for geometric abstracts and design-led prints. Canvas adds a subtle texture that softens the image, making it a good match for painterly or impressionistic modern work where brushstrokes and colour blending are part of the composition. The 400g cotton weave brings warmth and tactile presence that flat paper does not.

Paper prints come in A3, 50x70 cm, 70x100 cm, and A0. Canvas prints are available in 30x40 cm, 50x70 cm, and 70x100 cm. Frame options include oak, black, and walnut brown — for canvas, a floating frame adds a 5mm shadow gap that creates a gallery effect. All prints are produced in our Berlin studio using archival pigment inks rated for 100+ years. Each piece is printed to order on the day it ships.

Arranging Modern Prints

Modern prints are the easiest category to mix. The consistent design language — bold colour, clean composition, intentional whitespace — means most pieces in this collection pair without clashing. A set of three flower market prints in matching frames works as a cohesive gallery wall. Mixing a typographic piece with an abstract next to an illustration creates visual rhythm without looking random. For sizing, modern prints often benefit from going large — a single 70x100 cm print in a mid-century or Scandinavian interior is more effective than four smaller pieces.

For a tighter edit, browse our contemporary artists to find work from a single artist and build a set with a consistent visual signature. A pair of prints by the same artist, framed identically, can anchor a room without needing a full gallery arrangement. No warehouse stock, no pre-printed inventory — every piece is made to order in Berlin.
