Picture of the Week #100 "James Rosenquist"

Picture of the Week #100 "James Rosenquist" Los Angeles, California USA 1977 Signed and Stamped

I first met Jimmy when he was working at Gemini G.E.L., the number one publisher of limited edition prints by the world's leading artists. We hit it off right away and talked the day away, while he continued to produce a new image, I took pictures. The painting behind him titled "Fahrenheit 1982 was done five years later. I put the two photos together recently for a show I am having at the French Consulate General's here in Beverly Hills. Although the show was to be primarily images from France, they requested to show my suite of portraits of the great American POP artists, Warhol, Lichtenstein, Rauschenberg, Ruscha and Rosenquist. I loved the colors in the painting matching his shirt. And check out the November issue of "SilverShotz" the high end magazine journal of fine art Phootography where they did a 12 page article on my series "Holy Men Medicine Men MAd Men".
