"The Director"

Hollywood Gallery
Paintings by Brian Shapiro

From 1981-1988 the artist created over 300 paintings and drawings of "behind the scenes" moviemaking in Hollywood. These paintings were exhibited by the State Department in Europe at the National Gallery of Art, Athens, Greece as well as in other nations. Fifty-five paintings were exhibited by the Smithsonian Institution in Los Angeles and in galleries and museums nationwide. The artist was the first painter to exhibit his paintings in a one-person show at the Motion Picture Academy. Several of these paintings are available.

" Brian Shapiro's paintings of Hollywood, created in less than nine years, are the best fine art depictions of the Movie Industry at work ever."
-- Army Archerd, renowned columnist, Variety
