Exhibition Description:

This is a major exhibition of works by Jerome Witkin, regarded to be amongst the pre-imminent contemporary figurative artists of today.

He is well known for his large scale great narrative paintings and drawings, that eminate remarkable power and poignancy. His works include revealing, intimate figure studies and portraits, and a palpable atmosphere in his urban landscapes; be they of gritty New York scenes or his recent drawings of Jerusalem . Jerome Witkin's psychologically charged portraits, have been hailed by artists, critics and art historians alike, for both his technical mastery and psychological insight, while likening him to Lucien Freud, Manet, Ingres, and Goya.

Jerome Witkin's exhibitions have been given rave reviews and his works are included in many major museum collections internationally.
