Russell Young Portrait Paintings

American, British, b. 1959
Russell Young’s alluring, larger-than-life portraits of iconic cultural figures explore both glamorous American mythologies and their dark underbellies of crime, addiction, and death. His silkscreen paintings portray celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, and Kurt Cobain; the artist recontextualizes their iconic appearances in high-contrast palettes, often interweaving them with diamond dust to heighten their glittery, sensual allure. In other works, shellac drips and smears in a visceral, wound-like manner. Young has exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Shanghai, Vienna, and Los Angeles. His work belongs in the collections of the ​​Albertina Museum, the Cornell Art Museum, the Saatchi Collection, and the White House Collection. Celebrities including Brad Pitt, Elizabeth Taylor, and Kanye West have all bought his work. Young has also directed music videos, and in recent years, Dutch Golden Age paintings of flowers have become a frequent motif.

The print itself is in excellent condition. If you would like the print sent unframed the cost is the same. Please let us know if you would prefer to have us ship the print unframed. Artist Biography - Kevans’ paintings reflect her interests in power, manipulation and the role of the individual in inherited belief systems. She looks at alternative histories and how they relate to current issues and creates what she describes as ‘anti-portraits’ that may or may not be based on real documentation. She believes that, as her work is concept driven, sometimes the actual similarity to the person depicted in the work is irrelevant. This can be seen in her 'Boys' series which is not about portraying dictators as they really looked as children but rather about the notion of the ‘innocent child’ which has influenced images of children in art...

Anthony van Dyck, Engraving Ernest de Mansfeld, c. 1654, Portrait, Iconographie
By (After) Anthony Van Dyck
Located in Greven, DE
A wonderfully detailed and charismatic portrait, this exquisite work illustrates the technical mastery and artistic vision of Van Dyck. Ernest de Mansfeld's stately yet approachable expression reflects Van Dyck's refined ability to comfort and relax his subjects, resulting in a realistic and acute portrait. Ernest de Mansfeld was a German military commander during the early years of the Thirty Years War. Donning his armor and an ornate, lace collar, de Mansfeld appears as a strong commander. Without a hint of a smile, he calmly gazes out, the definition of cool and collected. Van Dyck accurately captures the sense that de Mansfeld is a man who takes his job seriously, a man worthy of commanding an army in battle. This portrait is a Mauquoy-Hendrickx State II (of II), engraved by Robertus van Voerst in collaboration with Anthony van Dyck (Antwerp, 1559 - London, 1641) as part of his Iconographie series of engraved portraits of famous people...

"Alphabet Marilyn" Lavender/Pink, 42x36", framed
By Ceravolo
Located in Southampton, NY
We are please to present Ceravolo's one of a kind "Alphabet Monroe Lavender/Pink". Ceravolo has been a master of creating intriguing portraits of iconic personalities for more then 4 decades, and rose to fame when he was commissioned to create 5 large-scale portraits for the lobby of the Palladium Theatre in New York City of Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, Neil Young, Frank Zappa and Hall and Oates, In addition to those portraits, his paintings are in the private collections of Sir Elton John, Rod Stewart, Hugh M. Hefner, and Prince Jefri of Brunei to name only a few. With his new Alphabet series, Ceravolo combines an image of his stylized black and white portrait painting, with letters of the alphabet and adds color to the negative space formed by the letters. As a final touch, he places color in the letters that make up the iconic subjects first or last name. This creates a contemporary, yet classic look to this unique creation. This work is titled, "Alphabet Marilyn lavender/Pink" and is printed on Rag paper size is 36x30" framed size measures 42x36". It is a one of a kind work and is signed by Ceravolo.
