Tom Rossetti is a native Floridian, born in Fort Lauderdale in 1963. He graduated from Florida Atlantic University in 1986 with B.F.A degrees in Fine Art and Art History. Artistically, Rossetti is classically trained and has developed into an Abstract Expressionist.
“I have always loved the Expressionists! Mark Rothko, Helen Frankenthaler, Willem de Kooning and Francis Bacon have influenced my current style. I love the freedom of expressing emotions as I paint, however, most of the time I let the paint itself direct the mood and composition of my canvases.”

The New River Fine Art Gallery will be closed for Thanksgiving, but will reopen on Friday, Nov. 27, 2020.
KEEP IT REAL: The Artwork of Mr. Brainwash Presented by New River Fine Art exhibition will be on exhibition through Dec 20, 2020.
WARHOL FLOWERS
Instead of observing flowers in nature, Andy Warhol found his botanical inspiration in a 1964 issue of Modern Photography.
He transformed a photograph of hibiscus blossoms into a technicolor series of silkscreens, each simply titled Flowers and debuted at the influential Leo Castelli Gallery later that same year. Silkscreens from that exhibition have since sold for over $2 million at auction.
While they evoke the Flower Power movement of the 1960s, Warhol’s Flowers have also been interpreted as a symbol of mourning, as the artist created these works just after President John F. Kennedy’s assassination.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States, was assassinated on Friday, November 22, 1963, at 12:30 p.m. Central Standard Time in Dallas, Texas, while riding in a presidential motorcade through Dealey Plaza 57 years ago yesterday.

New River Fine Art would like to take time to honor our military veterans, and all those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Today is your day. Thank You for Your Service!
Veterans Day 2020 occurs on Wednesday, November 11. In 1918, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, was declared between the Allied nations and Germany in World War I, then known as “the Great War.”
Commemorated in many countries as Armistice Day the following year, November 11th became a federal holiday in the United States in 1938. In the aftermath of World War II and the Korean War, Armistice Day became known as Veterans Day.

An art extravaganza, not to be missed, KEEP IT REAL will be a virtual and in-person exhibition featuring new works by Mr. Brainwash (b. 1966) as he utilizes artistic undertones of Norman Rockwell inspired, but rebellious American Nostalgia.
KEEP IT REAL delivers a sumptuous ostentation of graphic reverence dedicated to the prevailing king of conducive play. “Faux street tags and fabricated graffiti run amok. Mr. Brainwash is the master of juxtaposition. Motivational quotes intermingle in the urban hieroglyphics like contentions of encouragement. Lacking any kind of overt and contemptuous tones, the farce is more in line with ironic whimsy, than embezzled imagery,” says gallery owner, Lisa Burgess.
For more than a decade, Thierry Guetta, under his moniker, Mr. Brainwash, has been pushing the envelope of contemporary art. The orchestrated collision of street art and pop art has been his balancing act.
“The exhibition opens to the public on November 20, 2020. To manage the multitudes of Mr. Brainwash fans and collectors safely, in lieu of the traditional opening reception, New River Fine Art is hosting a special 12-hour Art Extravaganza to allow everyone a chance to see this spectacular exhibition. We have a digital catalog and a viewing room online; and will offer private appointments to view the show upon request,” says Wissam Elghoul, Gallery Director.
MARILYN MONROE
Marilyn Monroe is one of the most iconic Hollywood actresses and models of 1950’s / 60’s pop culture. Shortly after her death in August of 1962, Warhol cropped a publicity still of the actress, blowing her image up and using it to create his silkscreens. Mr. Brainwash samples this great American Pop Art reference and introducing a new element of Contemporary Art to the ongoing art historical lineage of this great American Icon.

BIRD'S EYE VIEW
Today is the day after our much-anticipated democratic exercise…
Amid all the excitement, we did see the recent passing of Sean Connery! We feel he is looking down on us, smiling and laughing, gracing us with his billowing basso Scottish accent.
In homage of this great actor, we want to reference the amazing photography of Antoine Rose’s approach – a bird’s eye view of sun bathers, the ocean, and the beach. A calming view of our coastal populations as we take a breath, post-election.

“I utilize mixed mediums to celebrate the assurance that we can be born again through grace and the beauty of natural transformation. I seek to show the infinite possibilities gained when we discover our God-given talents.”
“Monarch Migration” radiates a transcendental abyss where the monarchs flutter and jostle in playful admiration of the divine presence of the creator.

Keith Haring (1958-1990) was born in Reading, Pennsylvania. Moving to New York City in 1978 to attend School of Visual Arts, Haring began using the city as his canvas, creating drawings in subway stations.
Haring’s work uses the mechanics and colors typified in Pop Art and the stylistic tendencies of graffiti, or street art.
Haring’s work explores deeper themes of love, activism and the ensuing political climate of New York in the 1980’s. His work can be viewed in prestigious museums such as the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris.
The Montreux Jazz Festival, founded in 1967, is one of the most important musical events in Europe and has a history of enlisting international artists to create its official posters. In 1983, Pierre Keller, the Art Director for The Montreux Jazz Festival approached Keith Haring, a relatively unknown artist at the time, and asked him to produce a festival poster featuring a dancing figure.
Haring submitted three design variations, and the festival, so delighted with Haring’s work, promptly accepted all three.

La Cascade (The Waterfall)
Color lithograph
Image: 34 x 23” / Full Sheet: 35 1/4 × 24 in
Edition 14/75
Bibliography: Maeght ed. "Miro Lithographs", vol II, n° 391 p.34 (ill)
Signed in pencil on lower right recto “Miro”
Numbered in pencil on lower left recto "14/75"
From the edition of 75.
Printed and published by Maeght, Paris on Vellum paper
“The flowing of the cascade of water on the left vertical runs amok from the circular water source placed high into the top right corner. Although Miro cherished the act of automatic or random drawing, we see the festive transcendence of dark figurative apparitions. Circular elements stream through the composition like planetary orbits. Playful volleys of color are cemented within the picture plane with the complementing obscure color palette.”
The close relationship with Fernand Mourlot resulted in the creation of over one thousand Joan Miró lithographic print editions. His process of automatic drawing, allowing the hand to move randomly on the surface, leaving the artwork to chance, enabled him to create works that were genuine reflections of himself, an integral part of his popularity. A popularity that remains today, as they make for 91% of all his works bought on the market.

In the summer of 1946, at the age of 64, Pablo Picasso, Françoise Gilot and companion, Louis Fort, attended the annual pottery exhibition in Vallauris.
It is here, he met ceramicist, Suzanne Ramié. He took great interest in the artisan ceramic market of this region and was excited by the possibilities of this new medium. Picasso went on to befriend Georges and Suzanne Ramié and became captivated by their Madoura Pottery Studio.
Picasso would return to Vallauris in the summer of 1947, after an invitation from Suzanne Ramié herself. Georges and Suzanne Ramié were very hospitable to Picasso, and even put all their other studio artisans at his disposal. Offering tool, personnel, material, storage, and techniques, knowledge, time, and experience, to Picasso– he thrived, spending most of 1947 at the studio.
Over the next 25 years Picasso would create over 3,500 plates, vases, pitchers and other forms. Picasso would work with Madoura Studio until around the time of the artist’s death in 1973.

Mel Bochner’s linguistically masterful monoprints are bold and obtrusive. They slam into the art-world like an exploding grenade of letters. Shrapnel and fragments visually pierce the viewers’ psyche with their curved edges. In "Kvetch", 2020, Bochner’s six’ reads left to right in a repetitious pattern of laughing litany. Bochner smears, smoothers, and smudges oil paint into deeply carved Plexiglas plates. These plates act as reverse stencils; the equivalent to filling a trough with water. The paint sits in the recessed holding area, while paper is laid down and covers the colors in the Plexiglass molds. The paper and Plexiglas are positioned on a metal print bed and run through a hydraulic printing press process that applies 750 tons of pressure to the ground and medium; thus transferring the paint to the paper. The handmade paper is pushed deep into the recessed letter molds, resulting in a print plate mark. The letters appear raised on the paper with a letter embossment.
Texturally, these letters have a sculptural quality in their impasto-esque nature. The raised surface of the letters is created when the suction of the paper to the plate is released. The oil paint sticks to the paper and the color peel out of the Plexiglas letter molds.

Peace After Battle, Circa 1999
Paint on wood panel
41 x 41 in
"An orange and yellow glow creates a temporary aura of celebratory triumph. Horses, riders, and fighters are centralized and highly concentrated into the middle of the composition. In this cluster, a newfound confidence permeates the air.
Heads are held high, while the stars in the sky shine bright for those who have fought, won, and survived. They live to fight another day.
The found wood panels gives tribute and testament of the wonderous moment, shared by those present. High above, the ancestors are seen cradled in the evening’s illuminations, floating within too many stars to count. They provide shimmering rays of hope that beam down to the fighters, forging a beacon for a brighter future.
This momentary peacetime is cherished after this battle, indeed a time to celebrate a win, but the war is far from over.
The cosmos wraps them up in star-studded blanket to preserve the elated state, a peaceful rest."
We are so excited for Marlene Rose’s upcoming museum exhibition at the Imagine Museum in St. Petersburg, Fl., “Positive Reversals: Thirty Years of Impressions in the Sand”, opening on Oct 25, 2020.
Her glass is amazing!!!

Battle for Freedom, Circa 1990
Paint on panel with wood frame
48 x 35 in
Metaphysical confrontations of supernatural spirits, demons and angles have battled in the heavens and in the depths of hell, fighting over humans’ well-being. And yet man’s physical altercations in the 1950’s and 60’s Civil Rights movement protests illustrate that the war between good and evil has been with us in many forms for over a millennium.
The constant resurrection of goodness, not that of viciousness and evil, speaks the deepest truth about our world and our lives. It is said that good always triumphs over evil. Capturing a biblical war, the painting evokes a classic renaissance aesthetic.
“Battle for Freedom” by Young has a similar struggle being portrayed. With affixed found objects as sidebar comments on the gestalt of the painting’s meaning, the pool of blood on the bottom part of the painting continues to rise as the slaughter persists. However, it does appear the good, once again has the upper hand as mankind is again on the precipice of peril.

For Andy Warhol, Marilyn Monroe was the perfect interplay of personal tragedy and beauty. The world was captivated by the actress; newspapers provided access to her life through a steady stream of front-page articles and black and white photos. Shortly after her death in August of 1962, Warhol cropped a publicity still of the actress, blowing her image up and using it to create his silkscreens. With Marilyn’s image everywhere, her tragically short life was encapsulated by the likeness Warhol burned into his screens.
"Beauties in photographs are different from beauties in person. It must be hard to be a model, because you’d want to be like the photograph of you, and you can't ever look that way – and so you start to copy the photograph." —Andy Warhol
