TONY CURTIS HAS JUST RELEASED
A BRAND NEW SERIES OF GICLÉES OF MONTAGES.
The man behind the mask of one hundred and fifty
different roles, spanning over fifty years, now reveals himself
to be Tony Curtis, fine artist.
Tony Curtis' incredible skill and versatility
in the performing arts, is matched by his innate ability to create
great beauty in fine art, reflecting the rich life of the artist,
giving enormous pleasure to the collector.
While his acting career continues unabated today,
what happens to his enormous need to create when the cameras are
off and the sound stages are silent at the end of the day?
The same questioning and receptive mind that
captures the subtle nuances of daily life, and later incorporates
them into his film roles, has spent the last several decades storing
sights and memories, collecting objects, posters, lobby cards,
candid photos and movie stills that are now all coming together
to form his brand new series of delightful, whimsical giclées
of montages on canvas that virtually burst with all of the vitality
and romantic charm that has characterized Tony Curtis' whole life.
The glamour of the film world has left its mark
on his visual images. Each film locale and co-star has provided
him with new and different inspiration for his art work. Many
works seem bigger than life, encompassing great visual concepts
within the confines of the canvas.
Tony Curtis' long-standing love affair with the
beauty and glamour of Las Vegas has inspired the brilliantly conceived
and colorful paintings and giclées of montages that he
creates at his studio here.
Extraordinarily successful exhibitions all over
North America, Europe, and Asia, of Tony Curtis' paintings, assemblages,
collages, and boxes have earned him tremendous acclaim as a highly
sought after artist and a prominent place in many world famous
public and private collections. One of Mr. Curtis’s paintings
has just been accepted into the permanent collection of the new
film and media wing of the Museum of modern Art in New York, scheduled
to open at the end of this year, and Mr. Curtis is currently working
on a proposed exhibition for the Guggenheim Museum.
