First Friday Night Opening Reception
Three Exhibits for the Month of September:
The Artwork of Fortunato (Fred) Mannarino
Fred has long been recognized
as one of the finer practitioners of his art, acclaimed as a 'painter's
painter'. Fred, a native New Yorker, graduated from the School of Art &
Design, and subsequently studied at the School of Industrial Arts; the Art
Student's League; NY University where he attended classes given by Stephano
Cusomano; and, privately studied with Dick Ralph. Fred was just 16 when he won
his first national art exhibition award, securing first place for his ceramic
sculpture titled John the Baptist. A contemporary artist, often described as
one of the few cubistic painters around, he's garnered numerous awards, credits
and praise from professional art critics and art lovers alike. Serious art collectors
around the country and abroad have acquired a great number of his works. At
competitive showings Fred most always receives awards from the judging,
frequently being honored with Best of Show. During a recent month-long visit to
Italy and France, where he absorbed the sights and recharged his creative
juices, gathering material and inspiration for future works, Fred was invited
to exhibit at a gallery in Capri and at another in Paris. In the finest
tradition of the true professional artist who loves his craft, Fred has
developed and mastered his own distinctly unique cubistic style, through which
he continues to experiment and evolve his art.
