MONICA VITTI, SOPHIA & CATHERINE DENEUVE PAINTINGS BY JOHN FRANCIS GALLAGER
Curators’ Quote
‘THE IMAGINATION.
THE VIEWER’S ATTENTION.
A MOMENT IN TIME.
This exhibit coincides with our partnership with the Hamptons International Film Festival so with that in mind portraits of movie legends like Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor, Brigitte Bardot, Catherine Deneuve and Monica Vitti take center stage alongside vibrant abstract paintings that would enhance any set design.
There is a strong element of storytelling in Captured. Why is that woman alone in the parking garage? Who is Catherine Deneuve calling on the phone and why does she look so scared?
Mugshots of Bowie and Hendrix is the literal interpretation of captured creating their own narrative, with Morrison shown captured several times.
Evocative black and white photographs are reminiscent of classic film noir and Hitchcock. Beauty is also captured in this exhibit with elegant paintings of flowers and mirrored butterflies and the perfect stiletto. Large abstracts create worlds within worlds, while mixed media floppy disks of Porsche and Rolex capture the spoils of success with a playful nod to the past.
A lot is captured in Captured. Purely by design.
