About the Item

Abstract Painting. Vibrant use of colors. Oils on canvas. About the Artist Steve Cohen has been a professional lighting and scenic designer for 4 decades. Envisioning some of the most spectacular productions in the music business. Starting a lighting company in LA in 1974, he is one of the originators of the “lighting for music” discipline which has been the foundation for the creation of emotions that pervade the live concert experience. Billy Joel, The Eagles, Elton John, Justin Timberlake, Mariah Carey, Blake Shelton, Reba McEntire, Lenny Kravitz, The Global Citizens Initiative, Britany Spears, Paul Simon, and countless festival installations, and Television specials, have all been the soundtrack for his elaborate, emotional and creative lighting design. 14 years ago, he picked up a set of oils. “Lighting for music is ephemeral. My goal has always been to give the concert experience a visual sense memory. When you hear a song, after the concert, your awareness of color and composition of the lighting and visuals from that moment plays in your mind. Painting is my exercise to create those emotions in the physical realm.” “My process is to let the negative space drive the creation. The painting takes me on my journey. It is my music soundtrack.” Alternately Meditative and bold in color and composition, the work evokes the abstract, and the figurative. Hidden shapes that shift and emerge.
