Peter Buchman Heroine White Neon, 2025
About the Item
Contemporary New York artist Peter Buchman's Heroine White Neon is a provocative piece that blinks 3 different words randomly: Heroine - Hero - Heroin. The concept for this piece came from his love of words, storytelling, and movies. He is constantly sketching, writing and looking at words as part of his artistic process. So when the actor Philip Seymour Hoffman died Peter took a pause, because he was from his hometown - and mine. Then a light bulb went off in his head and the word heroine visually came to him. He instantly saw its importance and versatility. Peter felt that Mr. Hoffman shined in front of the light and yet was engulfed in the darkness that had him tethered as well. The neon asks the question - Is there not light and darkness in all of us? The word 'Heroin' might have had a role in Mr. Hoffman's demise, yet he was a 'hero' of sorts to many. The role of the 'Heroine' and the 'Hero' has been explored throughout history through comedy and / or tragedy. Even in our own stories, these three words together have such a compelling power that Peter felt the need to find a way to communicate their significance through his art. He simply thought they needed to see the light of day. Signed with a certificate of authenticity from the artist. This is a commissioned piece and will ship directly from the artist's studio.

Peter Buchman "Exit Strategy”, Voice-Over Paintings Series, 2025
By Peter Buchman
Located in New York, NY
Contemporary New York artist Peter Buchman's "Exit Strategy" is made of laser cut plexiglass, acrylic medium and enamel on wood. It's a part of his Voice-Over series, in which the artist culls linguistic phrases in a journey to immortalize how wonderfully other cultures have contributed to the American Diaspora. To explain that Buchman's word paintings are 'A Figure of Speech' is underestimating the level of soulfulness at which these works reside. They are markings directly from the artist’s hand yet are indications of many people before him. These are words from familiar phrases, music albums, his funny brand of irony and the human form itself. As far as "Exit Strategy" goes, Peter Buchman tends to dream a lot when he sleeps. When it's a really deep sleep, he is usually in an espionage kind of caper. Maybe James Bond meets film noir. He doesn't know why, but he's woken himself up running in place, sweating, and truly believing that he's killed someone. It is such a relief to sit up in bed and find that nothing's really happened, and all is well in his little corner of the world. With that said, there's a twisted, funny side to all of this, which leads him to something that everyone is familiar with: getting out of a sticky situation and how to address it. Facing it head-on and with a sense of humor is his default. Signed and dated en verso. This is a commissioned piece and will ship directly from the artist's studio.

Peter Buchman "Now Showing”, Voice-Over Paintings Series, 2025
By Peter Buchman
Located in New York, NY
Contemporary New York artist Peter Buchman's 'Now Showing' is created using laser-cut plexiglass, acrylic medium, and enamel on wood. It's part of his Voice-Over series, in which the artist gathers linguistic phrases to immortalize the valuable contributions of other cultures to the American Diaspora. To describe Buchman's word paintings as 'A Figure of Speech' is an understatement of the profound soulfulness they embody. They bear the marks of the artist's hand but also carry the collective spirit of those who came before him. These words derive from familiar phrases, music albums, his unique brand of irony, and the very essence of the human form.
'Now Showing' draws inspiration from Film Noir, a genre that held a profound influence on Peter's film and cinematic journey. The strident and punctual dialogue always fascinated him, along with the black and white director's perspectives. As an artist who spent hours drawing and sketching in pencil, the dramatic black and white hardened scenes just gripped him. He wanted smoke and spit and to rough something up. He wanted to emulate those textures, those scenes, that gut reaction with danger but in a poetic sense. The work reflects someone who is under interrogation, spilling their guts out, or just spilling the beans. It's a collection of phrases Peter unearthed or scratched out from movies or vintage pulp...
