Alessandro Keegan to have first NYC solo exhibition
Waterhouse & Dodd, the art dealer with galleries in New York and London, present After the Rain, is presenting Alessandro Keegan’s debut solo exhibition at their Upper East Side gallery from May 25 to June 22.
Keegan was born in 1980 and lives and works in Upstate New York. His paintings have been exhibited internationally including in New York, Chicago, London, Dublin, Barcelona, Hong Kong, and the Hague.
“Keegan is a highly regarded emerging artist and given his dedication and skill, his future is bright,” said Sandra Safta Waterhouse, the gallery director. “Collectors are encouraged to purchase while his prices are low. Prices for the 11 oil paintings start at just $5,800.”
“Keegan’s paintings are truly beautiful but they are more than just great decoration,” Waterhouse added. “His process is akin to mediumistic practices of art making, specifically automatic drawings where the artist is compelled to draw in a spontaneous way. The result oscillates between abstraction and representational with mysterious shapes painted in a formal manner.”
