Join us on Wednesday September 27th from 6-8 pm for a reception and book signing with HUNT SLONEM in celebration of the exhibition, BUNNIES, BIRDS, and BUTTERFLIES. This is Slonem's first appearance in Westchester.
The exhibition debuts a "fluffle" of Slonem's "Bunnies" alongside paintings of tropical "Birds" and "Butterflies", subjects for which Slonem is best known. Considered one of the great colorists of his time, Slonem's neo-expressionist paintings feature an exuberant and bold, fauvist palette to emphasize his beloved menagerie of animals. His spiritual practice provides the impetus for his Warholesque repetitive compositions.
Hunt Slonem's book, BUNNIES, a treasury filled with enchanting full-color and black-and-white paintings, features a foreword by bestselling author (and friend of the artist) John Berendt and an essay by artist and gallerist, Bruce Helander. A purchase of a painting includes a signed copy of his book.
Wine and light refreshments will be served.

THE WORLD OF FRED DEUX 20 September 2017 - 18 January 2018 |
|
Lyon's Museum of Fine Art pays a tribute to Fred Deux (1924-2015) by organising the largest ever exhibition of his work.
The exhibition, consisting of 230 drawings, reconstructs the polyphonic world of Fred Deux. Following a chronological thread, that of the cycles through which the artist laboured, it shows the underlying coherence of a body of work which from the outset, like two moulds, formed the tools which were to shape it: the line and the stain. From the drawings known as Kleepathology completed in Marseille in the late 1940’s, through to his final work, via major departures - Otages, Spermes noirs and Spermes colorés, Self-portraits, the monumental drawings of the 1980’s, unique books where the line simultaneously forms the mark and the word – this is the world of Fred Deux which is there to be seen and experienced. Objects fashioned by the artist and tribal art objects of his surrondings, like essential presences, echo his graphical work and replace it in his life journey. This exhibition is made possible thanks to recent major donations which have enriched the museum’s graphical art collections. |
