He combines these elements and builds layers and textures using acrylics, common objects, and collage. His work explores human behavior and social rules with a critic eye and humor, touching on personal themes such as dreams, fears, and memories. The images come from old magazines, advertising and photo albums collected at thrift stores. By extracting them from their natural context, he reconstructs them by adding references to popular culture as well as common phrases and insights that come from his Venezuelan childhood.

  • Keith Haring 1 - NYC, 1985 (hand signed and numbered twice; in a bespoke frame)
    By Richard Corman
    Located in New York, NY
    Richard Corman Keith Haring 1 - NYC, 1985 (hand signed twice), 2022 Photographic print on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Ultrasmooth paper mounted on Dibond aluminum board. (Hand signed and numbered on both the front and back of the board) Hand signed and numbered 1/10 twice (front and back) and also titled on the back by Richard Corman Frame Included: gorgeously housed in a wood frame, hand painted in orange This photograph of Keith Haring was taken in 1985 at his 676 Broadway studio, by celebrated photographer Richard Corman while on assignment for L'Uomo Vogue. By that time, Corman had already taken some of the most memorable and iconic photographs of Madonna and later Basquiat - so it was fitting that this stylish Italian publication would choose him to photograph Keith Haring - already a major New York art star at the time. Corman's iconic photograph of Haring was reprinted in 2022 in a limited edition, and was featured in the exhibition "I Shot The Messenger!" - a solo presentation of his work at Frevo in New York City from September 11 to November 11, 2022. It is held in a bespoke wooden frame hand painted in orange. This gorgeous print is signed twice: Richard Corman signed, titled, dated and numbered one of only ten (1/10) on the back in black marker, and also boldly signed and numbered in black marker on the front. A video of the artist signing this work will be provided to the purchaser. (see still photos of Corman signing this work.) Measurements: Frame: 41.5 x 38.25 x 2 inches Photograph: 40 x 36.75 inches Exhibition History: "I Shot the Messenger", Frevo Gallery, New York, New York, 2022 Richard Corman speaks on his first encounter with Keith Haring: "To my surprise, when Keith answered the door, this unassuming building revealed to me a labyrinth of finished and unfinished artworks, bursting with color. I was familiar with Keith's graffiti in the subway stations, his murals, and the unique language of his art which raised awareness of AIDS and fought against the infiltration of illegal drugs. However, while positioning him around the space and working to capture something special during our time together, I realized this person was undeniably an original. His calm presence defied his free spirit, which revealed itself as he placed himself in front of my camera. These images offer up a glimpse at the confidence and price that Keith had in his own unique language for communicating his message to the world." About Richard Corman: While Richard Corman’s photography varies widely in subject matter, it is always intensely focused on the infinitely varied expressions of the human spirit. Ken Burns, documentarian and director, describes Richard’s work as: "Artistic vision dedicated to the highest aspirations of human endeavor... the photographs record in big moments and small, among the famous and ordinary, the gifted and challenged, larger truths relevant to all of us." As a portrait photographer, Corman has worked with a thrilling breadth of subjects from Nobel Peace Prize recipients Nelson Mandela and Elie Wiesel...

  • Ophelia # 5, hand painted, mixed media portrait photography on paper, framed
    By Rosie Emerson
    Located in Dallas, TX
    This gorgeous artwork on paper was created initially with a screen print base of the model, then Rosie hand finishes the work with a unique splash and painted composition. Some call them Unique Prints. The base image is only used 12 times and this is the AP Rosie Emerson, born in 1981, is a contemporary artist working almost exclusively on representing the female form. Emerson’s figures draw reference from archetypes old and new, from Artemis to the modern day super model, each solitary figure, an allegory of her own fantasy. Interested in surface, the interplay between photography and painting. Emerson’s works are playful constructs; Photography is used, not as a device for capturing reality but for creating romanticised optical illusions. Inspired by her love of theatre, performance, shrines and rituals, she uses lighting, costume, set and prop making, alongside printmaking and painting to create other worldly one off pieces. Her photography is inspired by both the drama of the baroque, and ethereal qualities of Pre Raphaelite works. Other important influences include late medieval and renaissance paintings, Japanese prints, and magical realist literature. Emerson’s screen...
