George DeStefano Jersey City Art Show

Posted on

George DeStefano’s fantastic art will be shown all December long at the Love Is The Message Gallery in Jersey City, NJ. This Saturday night, 12/10 is the Art Opening Party which starts at 7:00 PM. It’s located right by the Grove Street PATH stop and it’s super easy to get to from Manhattan. Stop by on Saturday or at any other time during the month, check out in person what I’ve been raving about for years now and and grab a few pieces for your walls before he gets too famous and they cost way too much.

The DeStefano Mona Show

In the middle of last Tuesday’s show, I snapped a picture of George DeStefano (right) talking to close friend Gary Drewes (left) about the mythic corner paintings.

Go to Flickr and check out the rest of my photos from George DeStefano’s recent NYC art exhibition.

George DeStefano: NYC Art Show

Posted on

A few months back I posted about George DeStefano, one of my favorite up-and-coming artists. I am very happy to announce that he finally is showing his work in NYC.

The show is tomorrow night, Tuesday September 27th at Mona, a bar/lounge located on 988 Amsterdam Avenue (109th St) from 7:00 – 11:00 pm. I will definitely be there and cannot wait to see what new masterpieces he has put down on canvas/wood and whatever else he uses.

Please join me and/or tell a friend – this is just the start of a what should be a stellar career. As art’s an investment, it’s always good to get in on the ground floor. Not sure if he’s the real deal that I say he is? Well, stop by Mona tomorrow night and see for yourself.

Art by George DeStefano

Posted on

I am lucky to currently have not one but two pieces of art by George DeStefano hanging in my apartment. This up-and-coming painter/illustrator’s style cannot neatly fit into a specific category – I would call it “chunky abstract realism” – and his work really needs to be seen in person to do these pieces justice. Some pieces are created using found materials, such as old doors and other large objects, upon which he applies layer upon layer of paint to create images that stop one dead in his or her tracks. While your eyes may linger over a piece for a few seconds on the web, in person you’ll be standing in front of that same piece for a few minutes.

In the next decade, I expect big things from the New York based artist. If you are interested in seeing in person or obtaining one of George’s pieces, feel free to contact either me or George directly. His contact info can be found on his site.
