About the Item
Sax Berlin followers will already be aware that a second love of his is music. He has created this piece as a tribute to Motown; Berry Gordy Jr's classic record label. Motown music brought racial integration into music in the troubled America of the 1960's and remains an iconic genre well into the twentieth century. Smokey Robinson, himself a soul music legend said of the label, "we were not only making music we were making history", as is Sax Berlin with his Sharp Edge 21st century Neo- expressionist New York City style. Motown and Berlin cross barriers, breaking down and integrating people with art & music. Listen to Berlin's description of this painting and you will hear his passion and his voice of hope for the future through music and art.

Sax Berlin
We are privileged to sell works on behalf of Sax Berlin. Sax, arguably the finest exponent of 21st Century Classicism, has devoted his life to absorbing the culture of art and architecture in Europe, Asia & North America. He is undoubtedly a genius of our times and one of the great secrets of modern art. When one reviews his oeuvre, 10 distinct & separate styles emerge, displaying Berlin’s mastery of his subject. In fact only Picasso has achieved this height of genius. His students and collectors call him “The Master”. Berlin is a unique artist, using techniques mastered during his studies; ranging from antiquity through the medieval and Renaissance to the present; he creates the visual outcomes he wants and that delight collectors. The paintings Berlin has created in his New York, Greek and Cornish studios are of museum quality and are rarely seen in Art Sales offering a combination of beautiful artworks and investment opportunity. Harvard University refer to him as a Master Artist. The President of the Asia Society on Park Avenue, NYC wrote to Berlin that “your work is beautiful” and Bernard Faure, Professor of Asia Studies at Columbia University wrote “your icons really do have a life of their own”. Sax Berlin is a modern Master Painter in the truest sense of the term and follows in the footsteps of the Great Masters of the past.
