About the Item

Derek Buckner is represented by George Billis Gallery NYC and LA. Born in 1970, Derek Buckner lives in Brooklyn, NY, with his wife, novelist Joanna Hershon, their twin sons and daughter. The artist graduated from LaGuardia High School of Music and Art, as well as Vassar College, The Art Students League of New York and received a B.F.A. from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. During his career, Buckner has discovered many different themes, but the one to which he has most often returned is the urban landscape. In these paintings, he allows the viewer a distinctive look into his everyday surroundings, often including factory rooftops, bridges and the rapidly changing Gowanus Canal. ​ In Derek Buckner’s most recent series of oil and watercolor paintings, the vibrant palate and shock of light lend his subject matter an elegant intensity. Buildings and factories appear not only as elements of industrial Brooklyn but also as blocks of pure color. “For me,” the artist states, “painting is not about inventing something new but instead it’s the act of seeing and considering my world from new perspectives. A painting, unlike a photograph, does not represent a moment in time, but is itself a collection of memories and decisions— an artifact of an experience.” Buckner’s goal is not to copy what he sees but to provoke his own visual curiosity and excitement in the viewer.

59th Street Bridge, original realist New York City landscape
By Michael Davis
Located in Spring Lake, NJ
A veritable life line for New York City that connects the boroughs of Manhattan to Queens, NYC artist Michael Davis painted this original landscape in a realist style to ensure capturing the might and splendor that such an architectural and engineering achievement represents to civilization and certainly to New York. A colorist, Davis seeks simplicity of expression, with clean lines paired with love of his subject matter balanced with aquamarine skies and sapphire blue water. His addition of sky scrapers in the background adds scale and dimension. Davis earned his BFA from Pratt Institute of NYC where he is a life member of the famed Art Students League. Davis' work has shown in the Grand Central Gallery, the National Academy of Design, the Salmagundi Club and the National Arts Club among others. This original oil painting is shown in a champagne silver plein air frame...
