“From Harlem
to Hollywood”
Dear fellow musicians and art lovers, this letter is to introduce to you the
latest of our special events from Eurogallery Live Art. We are commissioning
12 works of art on the theme “Music”. The title of the first work is
“From Harlem to Hollywood” in cooperation with the world renowned jazz
vocalist Michel Danso! The commissioned artist is Manfred Hönig.
The expansion of jazz in the early years of its colourful history makes a
wonderfully rich subject to treat in a painting, to echo the birth and
growth of some of the world’s best loved jazz characters.
From the
shadows of dimly lit night-clubs to the bright lights of Hollywood, the
history of jazz is a magical story, told through the magnificent melodies
created a lifetime ago, breathed into every self-respecting saxophone for an
entire generation and living still in the hearts and minds of a new
generation of Jazz-men all over the world today.
The names Harold Arlen, Cole Porter, Duke Ellington and George Gershwin and
many others sound out as being the masters of the syncopated beat, the
unmistakable talent of the era’s tunesmiths, forging the new sounds through
bass, brass and drums, making thousands of feet tap and dance to the rhythm,
writing a part of world history that still continues to evolve.
Capture some of this magic in following the evolution of this new work, in
real-time as it is created. With regular updates direct from the artist’s
studio, from the blank canvas to the final painting, only through
Eurogallery Live Art! The final work will be presented at a prestigious art
event and may be purchased. Additionally a limited number of quality
lithograph prints will be made available.
