Steve Zolin’s latest drawings interpret the unique spaces and shapes of Lisbon, Sintra and Porto, resulting in a vibrant body of work. They will be on display this weekend at the Marloe Gallery booth at the Art on Paper Fair. The Fair takes place at Pier 36 on the Lower East Side of Manhattan this Thursday through Sunday, September 7 – 10. Art on Paper
Clio Art Fair May 18th-21st 2023 – 550 W29th St Chelsea, NYC
Cityscape paintings and drawings by Steve Zolin, and work by dozens of other artists this Art Fair Weekend at Clio !
Last fall I received word that BKSK Architects were looking for a mural for their 16th floor lobby of the Bricken Arcade Building in Manhattan’s Garment District. Having recently researched that area for another project, I had a clear idea of what I wanted to convey: the energy of a million sewing machines channeled into a gestural cityscape inspired by the area’s architecture. The firm’s partners and lobby team appreciated my hand-drawn gestural approach, so I carried that into the final product. I traded up my typical china markers for the thickest charcoal sticks I could find.
Back-and-forth with the client is typical for a project of this kind, and I created several series of drawings and models, attempting to draw more closely to their vision. They wanted the mural completed by the end of the year, so while their Office was closed between Christmas and New Years, I went in and created it, finishing with the fixative around 9pm on New Years Eve. You could already hear the crowds nearby in Times Square.
When the office staff arrived back on Tuesday morning, it was as if the mural had magically appeared. The partners and staff were pleased with the piece- they recently sponsored a Happy Hour in their office where I gave an artists talk about my artwork, and how it led to what I had created for them. It was a very special and unique experience.
See ‘City Rhythms,’ an all-NYC cityscape exhibit by Steve Zolin in the Peninsula Hotel, a beautiful New York Landmark, through spring 2022 at 700 5th Ave.
Thousands of Art Lovers descended on the Hyatt Regency on the Hudson for the second edition of Art Fair 14C from February 21-23. It’s a unique hotel show where each guest room was turned into a mini-gallery. The response to Zolin Art was overwhelming as many new art connections were made. We will definitely apply again next year!
How many people does it take to unroll a 360 degree view of Verdi Square? Apparently four. Thanks to @art_in_res for bringing a really great bunch of art lovers to my studio recently- what a fun time!
