Gallery Walk - Frederick hart Exhibition

A Major Art Event

A very large and expansive group of sculpture from internationally acclaimed sculptor Frederick Hart (b.1943 – d.1999) will be on display at Brilliance In Color Gallery, 25 King Street in the Plaza area of downtown St. Augustine this Weekend, November 11^th and 12^th (Fri/Sat). This show is of National significance and importance, and over 80 distinct bronze and acrylic creations from Hart are on exhibit and available for acquisition. The exhibition is open to the public throughout the month of November.

Hart’s sculpture can be seen in public displays in Brookgreen Gardens, Newington-Cropsey Foundation Gallery, as well as the courtyard of the Lightner Museum here in the Ancient City. Harts’ widow Lindy will be in attendance throughout the weekend, along with Robert Chase, publisher and life-long friend of the artist. “This will be our major effort of 2011 to provide Florida residents with an opportunity of seeing, in great preponderance, the art of a major iconic American figure”, said Len Cutter (president, Cutter & Cutter Fine Art). Advanced viewers have already been deeply moved and overwhelmed by such pieces as “Daughters of Odessa”, trilogy bronze, which will be seen for the first time ever at Brilliance In Color. (The Prince of Wales has had for years at his Highgrove residence in the UK the same grouping.) The cultural aspects and impact of this exhibition are palpable and First Coast residents will be enthralled with what they see. Mr. Cutter also stated that, “St. Augustine has returned to its former place of glory among art locales in America with this exhibition, and the continuing growth of the downtown art district.”

Frederick Hart Exhibition - A Singular & Major Force

A Major Exhibition

Brilliance In Color - 25 King Street, St. Augustine, FL

"If you think about what Hart achieved in his best work, it’s not merely the artistic excellence that one admires; it is the singularity and courage of what he did." These words are spoken by Dana Gioia, past chairman of the National Endowment of the Arts, in a 2009 interview. The words are strikingly similar to the response Rick gave sixteen years earlier when asked in another interview to characterize the legacy he hoped to achieve. In his somewhat self-conscious but candid response, Rick reveals that he would like to be remembered best as "a singular and major force" in reconnecting art to society.

Rick had long questioned the value and purpose of art and the role of the artist in a culture in which art no longer expressed the ancient values of truth, beauty, and goodness. Rick believed that "...art has a moral responsibility, that it must pursue something higher than itself. Art must be a part of life. It must exist in the domain of the common man. It must be an enriching, ennobling, and vital partner in the public pursuit of civilization. It should be a majestic presence in everyday life just as it was in the past." Rick’s philosophy put him in opposition to much of contemporary art and propelled him on a divergent trajectory into history.

It was a lonely and uncharted path, but the values Rick championed served as a compass enabling him to step forward with other artists at one of history’s critical junctures. Voices from the arts community put Rick in the forefront of a re-orientation of art in today’s culture. These artists, writers, art critics, gallery owners, and musicians speak of a burgeoning movement in art that celebrates craftsmanship and purpose and seeks to connect with a public in need of affirmation only art can offer.

Tom Wolfe commented in a New York Times Magazine article (January, 2000) where he said that Rick "…will not have been the first major artist to have died ten minutes before history absolved him and proved him right." As the twentieth century gave way to the next millennium, Rick’s life was cut short, but his journey continues. His expanding legacy is a bridge to the future he passionately anticipated.

Also available as a 26" x 42" Limited Edition Giclée on canvas.
The languid days of summer are the perfect inspiration for enjoying "Il Dolce Far Niente" - "the sweetness of doing nothing". Leisurely savoring a glass of chardonnay with friends and reminiscing on the porch begins an indulgent evening of great wine. As the music gets turned up, so does the accompanying laughter of shared tales that grow taller with each newly opened bottle. It's a Golden Opportunity to keep the magic going and create another unforgettable evening.

New Royo Limited Edition

Spanish Master Royo recently decided to create his first limited edition in nearly a decade. The new decade continues to see a strong attraction in the art collecting world for Royo’s elegant originals. In the past, large numbers of fans acquired his L/E releases. Beginning around 2006, Royo withdrew from the L/E market opting for an “originals only” market which, in retrospect, seems to have been a timely decision considering recent economic conditions. Royo’s popularity has continued to grow and as one of his dealers we welcome “Morena” a 32” x 39.5” beautiful mixed media on panel (edition of 125). Royo has recently hand signed the entire edition and it looks spectacular!

Ira Reines

Click here to see more of Reines’ work.

“I believe that my art has a spiritual beauty, a sense of ascension, grace, flight, awakening, and rebirth that is rare; and what is especially important to me is that I use beauty and flight as a metaphor for divinity.” —Ira Reines

Ira Reines was born in New York, New York on December 3, 1957 and by the age of five his sculptural talents began to emerge. Reines studied the works of Michelangelo, Bernini, and Rodin most passionately and even had the good fortune to experience their masterpieces first-hand in Rome and Florence. As he grew older, he also came to admire the work of twentieth-century master sculptor Frederick Hart. His career got a tremendous boost when he was hired to work with Art Deco Master Erte. Ira worked closely with Erte, translating the master’s two-dimensional designs into seventy bronze sculptures that were sold world-wide. After experiencing several life-changing events, Reines rededicated himself and began to strip away the unnecessary elements in his work, finding his true voice.

Dmitri Danish

Click here to see more of Danish’s work.

Dmitri Danish was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, in 1966. A natural artist from the start, taking his first drawing pencil in hand before he was able to walk or talk. Over the years his career quickly took off and he has exhibited in Ukraine, Russia and other Eastern European countries. In 2000 the Kharkiv State Museum conducted a solo exhibition called "Cities and Mountains" and purchased three of his paintings that are now part of their permanent collection. During that same time, the New Jersey Museum of Modern Art also purchased three of Danish's works. And, in 2003 the Ukrainian government purchased a painting and presented it to the outgoing ambassador of the United States. Danish has traveled most of Europe since the opening of the Russian borders visiting cities and countries he dreamed about as a child. He has spent time Italy, France, Holland, Hungary, Austria, Greece, and Turkey, and made his first trip to the U.S. in 2005 to participate in several one-man shows.

Jeffrey Terreson

Click here to see more of Terreson’s work.

Artist Jeffrey Terreson was born in Bronxville, NY, at an early age, Terreson had the pleasure of knowing what he was going to do. Upon graduation from college he moved to New York City to begin a career as an artist. For years, Terreson painted and supported himself through his fine art illustrations. His artwork was published for many Fortune 500 companies and appeared in nationally recognized periodicals such as Time, Newsweek, TV Guide, Readers Digest and many more. After a great deal of success in the New York art scene, in 1996 Terreson decided it was time to take his art in a new direction. His new fine art status now finds him in our countries top galleries.

Josef Kote

Click here to see more of Kote’s work.

In 1964, a star was born in the scenic port town of Vlore, Albania. Modern master Josef Kote emerged eager to share his unique vision with the world. Kote began a journey towards artistic self-discovery in his youth and never looked back. In 1990, he relocated to Greece and began working as a freelance visual artist. In this new environment, Kote's style evolved and flourished. During the decade he resided in Greece, Kote was acknowledged by numerous prestigious artists, as well as public and private collectors. His elevated status in the art world led to many great commissions. In 2000, for example, Kote was commissioned by the Greek community of Toronto to paint the likeness of the visiting President of Greece, Konstantinos Stephanopoulos. The artist saw his dream develop before his very eyes; the fruits of decades of labor fully realized. In 2009, he began his most recent journey, and for the third time, completely uprooted himself and moved to New York City. Who knows what beauty the future holds for one of modern art's greatest voices.

19th Century Art Event Concludes

Brilliance In Color Fine Art Gallery (A Cutter & Cutter Gallery) located on the plaza in downtown St. Augustine announced today the conclusion of a very successful exhibition of authentic period art. The show ran from mid-April thru mid-May and attracted clients and fans of fine art from over 20 states. Matthew and Mark Cutter (partners) jointly announced that over 60 works of art from the 19th Century Masters were acquired and now reside in private collections. “We wanted to make the gallery look and feel like a fine museum and our clients really enjoyed the private dinner parties as well as the ballet performance choreographed and performed by the Florida ballet.” The Cutters went on to express their thanks to Laurie Byrd of the Florida Ballet for her continued creativity and understanding of the symbiotic connection between art and dance. The performance provided a unique verve and vitality which permeated the room and filled clients with an elevated understanding of the continuing importance of artists such as Toulouse –Lautrec, Renoir, Degas and Mary Cassatt.

The Cutter Family conducts 18 art exhibitions a year within their four downtown St. Augustine locations and credits that effort as the reason for their continued growth, popularity, and notoriety as one of America’s most successful art dealers. Matthew and Mark Cutter concluded by saying, “Our Brilliance In Color gallery will continuously exhibit a selective portion of 19th Century Art, which we have learned will still be popular long after all of us are gone.”

Colorful Expressions of Love & Life

We are lucky, all of us as a group, and specifically us as your art dealer, you as a sophisticated client, and Michael and Inessa Garmash as the most exciting and potentially strongest of the artists we represent. Influenced by some of the greatest Russian artists such as Nicolai Fechin, Ilya Repin and Valentin Serov (as well as great American artists like John Singer Sargent) this fascinating duo brings to us again convincing proof with the arrival of  a new grouping of very important originals. This is their 4th exhibition in St. Augustine and we anticipate, as before, that every single original will sell. There is now a well-established demand, and even craving for their work; this bodes well for those who love to see a steady and inevitable rise in demand and price that often signals a career of greatness.

We don’t want to sound aggressive, however, we are often hurt by the disappointment in the voices and on the faces of those who call or come to the gallery only to learn that one, two, or even three of their preferred pieces are now in private collections. The Cutter Family strongly believes in M & I Garmash and has reflected in depth upon the effect of losing Italian master Pino to cancer this past year. Surely Michael and Inessa can and will beautifully fill the void in the figurative genius that the world and our group has lost. Our intent is to promote and enjoy their gorgeous originals for ‘as long as we live’. You have our word on that. The originals you’ll discover within are fine art at the highest level and worthy of hanging truly and literally in any museum from St. Petersburg, Russia to our great American museums and important private collections just like yours.
Should you decide, based on your knowledge and experience (and possible ownership of their work) to bring one of these new beautifully painted compositions into your home or office prior to the exhibition we encourage you to call quickly. In the past that is precisely what has taken place. At our private gathering you will be able to meet with Michael and Inessa and continue learning more about their extraordinary talent and ability to express and observe love and life in all of its wondrous colors, contrasts and intriguing and riveting compositions. Pre-sold originals must remain through the exhibition and we are sure that Michael and Inessa will, as before, provide every collector with something special and memorable. As their tremendous talent and fame grows it will be nice to know that you have a personal relationship with one of the worlds most extraordinary love stories. We know this much, we love their work, and cherish every moment spent in their presence. Best of all we believe they love coming to St. Augustine and showing you what they see through the eyes of two who love the colors of life and expressing their love for each other.

Worley Faver

Cutter & Cutter Fine Art is now the exclusive representative for nationally renowned potter, Worley Favor!

This Saturday, January 29th from 1:00 – 4:00 PM, Worley Faver will be available at Brilliance In Color (25 King Street, on the plaza in downtown St. Augustine) to meet with you and explain his remarkable hand-coiled technique (no potter’s wheel is used). This is an ancient technique, used by Native American Potters (one of Worley’s biggest influences is Maria Martinez, one of the oldest, most revered American Indian potters) and actually goes back to early Egyptian times. Worley’s only modern tool is his kiln, all his pottery is created by hand, using tools nature provides (he uses a walnut shell and corals for textures and a smooth river stone for burnishing, the dark color is achieved by placing the red-hot pottery in a mound of wood shavings). With this time-honored technique Worley brings an artistic embellishment to each original pot that comes directly from his meditations on life itself and all of its mystical meaning.

At the risk of boring you or creating a thought of , “to good to be true”, allow me to give you my personal guarantee, that this work with all of its sophisticated design, shape, style, and historic connection will be with us, as one of our most stimulating offerings for as long as Worley Favor creates them. His unity of thought and spellbinding textures are coupled with geometric designs and abstract elements from nature as well as the nature of man. Each piece of pottery is unique and we anticipate literally every collector that has acquired artwork from our galleries can and will have the perfect setting for one of these timeless treasures. Each will become a terrific heirloom to enjoy together as time goes by. We are committed to Worley’s pottery, and we fervently hope you will join us to see for yourselves the beauty of his creations. Worley is current working on a major piece, and this Saturday offers you the chance to see, feel, touch and even smell the process...you will not be disappointed. You will be in the presence of one of the most extraordinary artists we have been privileged to represent.

A massive array of pottery will be available, and we believe you will be astounded at the magnificence found in them. No two are alike and some require two month’s time to create. The bottom line...those given to grasp greatness in art will see instantly that I have not overstated the case, and I believe will be grateful with the gift of getting to know an artist like Worley Favor. He lives to express himself through his hands, and his work will help you to connect with the deep and abiding reference he has for life and the gift of living it...you simply must see his creations.

P.S. - Worley’s prices range from $500.00 for smaller pieces up to $10,000.00 for larger works.
