Billy Schenck Portrait Paintings

American, b. 1947
Billy Schenck has been known internationally for 44 years as one of the originators of the contemporary 'Pop' western art movement. He is an American painter who incorporates techniques from Photo-Realism with a Pop Art sensibility to both exalt and poke fun at images of the West. Schenck has had over 100 solo shows. His work is in the permanent collections of 48 museums and important private and corporate collections. Museum collections include the Smithsonian, Mesa Southwest Museum, The Tucson Museum of Art, The Denver Art Museum, Museum of the Southwest, Midland TX, Albuquerque Fine Arts Museum and the New Mexico Museum of Art. Private collections include the estate of Malcolm Forbes, Steve Forbes, Chris Evert, Elaine Horwitch, Louis Meisel, Martina Navratilova, Laurance Rockefeller, Fritz Scholder and Sylvester Stallone. Corporate collections include: American Airlines, I.B.M., Raymond James Financial, Wells Fargo Bank, Hilton Hotels, Sturm Ruger and The National Bank of Switzerland. “What has remained constant throughout Schenck’s career is his individuality in dealing with the subject matter of the west. Using the artistic formula of classic western film direction and the photographically reliant systems of contemporary art, he has bridged two genres that resonate with the American experience. From early depictions of cinematic cowboys to real-life cowboys and cowgirls to poetic reveries about the Native American existence in the Southwest, Schenck melds the real with the imagined, autobiography with fantasy.” -Julie Sasse, Chief Curator and Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art, Tucson Museum of Art.

Andy Warhol - Portrait Painting Color Beige Yellow Green Orange White Black
By Vlado Vesselinov
Located in Sofia, BG
"Andy Warhol" is a painting by Maestro Vlado Vesselinov. About the painting: Style and Technic: POP ART, Contemporary, Acrylic paint, oil on canvas The painting is unframed. The paintings bring emotion of happiness, love, energy and beauty represented by the vast creative power of his talent.” Maestro Vesselinov has track records of multiples exhibitions. His works are owned in privet collections around the word. Painting of the Bulgarian artist Vlado Vesselinov is a great example that the vintage style prevails lately and is also present in the world of contemporary art. The work of Vesselinov should be read as an expression of nostalgia and fascination with the past - fashion, design and pop culture of the 60s. A characteristic feature of these images is a clearly visible texture of the canvas, which remind us pages that someone snatched from a fashion magazine found in the attic. It's similar to the effect used by Quentin Tarantino in his recent productions, where full of dirt and defects film reels pulls the audience in a unique atmosphere of a Drive-in theater. As for the colors of Vesselinov artworks, he clearly refers to the psychedelic record covers of Jimi Hendrix or Jefferson Airplaine. Vlado Vesselinov born in 1977 Bulgaria Solo exhibitions: 1998 – solo exhibition, Kyustendil, Bulgaria 1999 – solo exhibition – Gallery Kovachev, Kyustendil, Bulgaria 2000 – solo exhibition – Art Gallery "Vladimir Dimitrov...
