Previewing upcoming art exhibitions from coast to coast, American Art Collector is a unique monthly magazine specially designed to bring living representational artists, galleries and active art collectors together in one place.
Welcome to our January 2023 Issue of American Art Collector! Proudly, sometimes hyper-realistic, often with incredible shape and depth. Unlike landscapes with their soft rolling hills and trees or cityscapes with their angular lines, reflection and lights, still lifes takes a subject and literally brings it to life for us. For collectors, still life compliments and enhances all other genres. Like landscapes, still lifes always have a place in great collections. Please see this amazing group of featured still life artists beginning on Page 52. We are sponsors of two shows for two climates. If you want to feel the cold winter air you should attend the Washington Winter Show in Washington, D.C., featuring American art that ranges from classic to contemporary. This show has an amazing history and we…
As we complete another lap around the sun and embark on this upcoming year, Collector. I am honored and excited to embrace this role and maintain the high standards you have come to expect of this publication.

A solo exhibition of paintings by Eileen Murphy, hosted by Garvey|Simon, is currently on view at DFN Projects in New York City. The gallery notes, “Murphy weaves together gossamer fantasies with Old Master details and allusions, conjuring up visions that simmer with memory. Her paintings are a mirage of disparate memories. Lived experience, borrowed art historical footnotes, and imagery drawn from literary references swirl together and coalesce into shimmering sylvan scenes.” Eileen Murphy: Fading Edens remains on view through December 30.…
