That's a great starting point! Here are a few gift ideas that could interest your boyfriend who likes contemporary art:
1. Membership to a Contemporary Art Museum - Give your boyfriend the gift of access to some of the best contemporary art exhibitions in the world. A membership to a prominent contemporary art museum like MoMA, Guggenheim or LACMA, would be a thoughtful gift.
2. Art Books - If your boyfriend is an avid reader, choose some interesting art books to add to his collection. Check out some books on trendsetting contemporary artists like Ai Weiwei, Jeff Koons, Yayoi Kusama, and Grayson Perry.
3. Original Art - If you have a higher budget, consider buying him an original piece of contemporary art from a rising artist or one that he admires. You could browse art galleries, art fairs or even websites like Artsy for ideas.
4. Limited Edition Prints or Multiples - Alternatively, instead of purchasing an original artwork, look for limited edition prints or multiples by contemporary artists. They are often more affordable than an original piece but still offer a chance to own a unique work of art.
5. Art-inspired Accessories- You can find many contemporary art-inspired accessories such as a phone case or a tote bag with the artwork of your boyfriend's favorite artist. These would make for great daily reminders of his love for contemporary art.
Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
