Sax BerlinPursuit of Peace. JFK. Figurative Oil Painting
About the Item
Sax Berlin is a master of many styles and this Van Goghesque portrait of JFK is both subtle and eye-catching. Shocking events are taking place in the world so it's fitting that Berlin should craft a painting using Kennedy as his subject. The man devoted his all too brief years in public service to try and negotiate the aftermath of World War II and the subsequent Cold War. It's both a tribute to the man and a plea to us all to make the world a better place, a world fit for us to dwell in, and a world we can entrust to the next generation .

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.
