Charles Movalli Art
American, 1945-2016
Charles Movalli (1945–2016) had a BA from Clark University and a PhD from the University of Connecticut. He painted and wrote about art for over thirty years. He belonged to the North Shore Arts Association, the Rockport Art Association, The Guild of Boston Artists, Academic Artists, Hudson Valley Art Association, and the New England Watercolor Society.
Although he worked primarily in acrylic, he was also a Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America. He received Life Achievement Awards from the Oil Painters of America (1991), Rockport Art Association (1999), and Hudson Valley Art Association (2002).
Movalli judged shows all over the United States and lectured and demonstrated for over a hundred different art organizations. He also conducted painting workshops in 24 states, Bermuda, Mexico, Canada, England, France, and Switzerland. Movalli is also listed in Who's Who in American Art.
"Artist, author, teacher and jurist, Charles Movalli relished his reputation as an avant-garde painter and a man of letters. Others viewed him as a bridge between traditionalism and the modernists, not only on Cape Ann and the North Shore, but across the country, and as far afield as Europe. Charles Movalli touched the lives of everyone who knew him; through his art, his vision, his writing, and his teaching . . ."
