John Joseph Hanright
John Joseph Hanright is an American contemporary artist recognized for his mixed media work. He seeks inspiration from vintage advertisements and magazine headlines, as well as both comic books and high-class art from the 1960s onward. His complex visual narratives investigate the interpersonal dynamics between men and women, employing action as a metaphor for heroes and hookups. His work is densely layered, both in terms of imagery and content, with text, paint, and imagery. He draws on the nostalgia evoked by noirish comic book figures, as well as from magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post, Life, and Look. Reminiscent of artists such as Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol, Hanright describes his work as “thought provoking, sexy, amalgamations of conceptual art, Americana, and pop culture.” His work has been displayed at: LA Art Fair, Melanoma Foundation, Liberty Hotel, Montserrat College of Art Permanent Collection, Palm Beach Art and Design Show, Naples Art Show, Architectural Digest Design Show, Collaboration with Designer Campion Platt among others. Hanright’s work is in esteemed private collections both nationwide and worldwide. John Joseph Hanright holds a degree in Painting and Fine Art from Montserrat College of Art.

- "From Americas Best Loved" Marilyn Monroe Collage Composition on Panel BoardBy Robert MarsLocated in New York, NYThis piece showcases a ravishing depiction of Marilyn Monroe. Celebrating the icons from the Golden Era with expressive and bold colors by capturing these moments in history, his paintings serve as vehicles for bringing the American brand to the world. With the use of graphic compositions, glossy textures, and rich colors Mars provided the ultimate medium in which to explore his fascination stemming from the Golden Age of American popular culture and the icons of the 1950’s and 60’s. Mars hand-painted stars in the background with clippings from magazines dating back to this era and incorporates messages from those times throughout the artwork. Creating the perfect backdrop for his centerpiece, Monroe stands out exceptionally, as the Dom Pérignon logo is draped across adding an extra character of definition. Mars then layers the entire painting in epoxy resin, so the thickness of the piece pops dramatically. Finishing off the edges of the wood panel with newspaper articles and advertisements from an array of vintage magazines collected over the years. This is a one-of-a-kind piece executed on wood panel and comes ready to be displayed with D-Rings on verso, signed by the artist lower right and on verso. Art measures 80 x 60 inches (weights 70lb approx.) Robert Mars was born in 1969 and is a graduate of Parsons School of Design in New York. At a young age, between 7 and 8 years old, he was drawn to muscle cars, custom vans, superheroes, and other icons that were relevant as a child. This idea of icons has been an obsession within his life and has continued into his adult life and throughout his artistic career, but the imagery has been refined over time. With the use of graphic compositions, glossy textures, and rich colors Mars provided the ultimate medium in which to explore his fascination stemming from the Golden Age of American popular culture and the icons of the 1950’s and 60’s. Drawing inspiration from the near-mythical fame that surrounded celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, James Dean, Audrey Hepburn, Elvis Presley, and many others, before the instant and all-encompassing presence of the internet, Mars’ daring approach creates paintings with a nostalgic yet innovative vintage feel. Employing concepts rooted in abstract expressionism, Mars has expanded on his body of work in the last years to abstract compositions, finding a balance between chaos and control by precisely cutting the painted vintage newspaper into predetermined patterns with multicolored paint layers of loose and dynamic brushstrokes in order to bridge to the events of the past and anchoring each of his artwork in a particular time of history. Robert Mars taps into the feelings that emanate from his paintings which vacillate between memory and desire. The taste of nostalgia pulls the viewers towards the iconic stars and the consumerist historical subject material of Mars’ works. Mars’ sources are the very core of these dreams. Photographs of stars like Bruce Springsteen, logos of products like Coca-Cola and TIFFANY & CO., and vintage ephemera are layered beautifully with news stories of seminal events; from the death of JFK to the 1969 moonwalk. By capturing these moments in history, his paintings serve as vehicles for bringing the American brand to the world.
