Francks Décéus included in survey of 100 gifted New York painters
BOOK’S LINER NOTES
“This stunning book is the long-awaited
result of an extensive review of New York painters and their widely diverse works. It presents an overview of styles, mediums, subjects, even philosophies of art found in galleries, museums, and
artists’ studios of present-day New York, the acknowledged Art Capital of the contemporary world. Although you may recognize the names and works of many, this company of 100 painters also features works from artists less
celebrated, though no less deserving of attention. Expect to find recent works, as well as paintings from an earlier period of an artist’s oeuvre - as near as Kelynn Alder’s “Coney Island”, painted
specifically for this book, and as distant as George Tooker’s iconic allegory, “Subway”, painted in 1950. Brief biographical sketches accompany each artist’s work, providing insight into their
emotional and philosophical connections with art as well as their schooling and accomplishments. Experience for yourself this visual feats showcasing the unique works of 100 gifted New York Painters.”
