After scaling the heights of a 35-year career as one of the world’s most acclaimed
portrait painters, Rossin has emerged in this exhibit of New Works as one of the most
culturally significant artists of our time. This is metamodernism in full bloom.

Joyride
96 x 60 inches

American Pieta
84 x 60 inches

In his renowned style of hyperrealism, Rossin pulls us into strange impossible worlds
where we allow ourselves to appreciate opposite ideas of sincerity and irony, idealism and skepticism, sympathy and satire in the action taking place — and transcend
that duality to reclaim the felt experience of what’s eternally human.

Luncheon on the Grass
84 x 60 inches

Barbie
50 x 50 inches

Judith
96 x 60 inches

The Swimmer
96 x 60 inches

Told in a series of conversations between ancient mythologies in dialog with the defining
spirits of our modern time, each painting tells a hauntingly beautiful story — all told through a paradox of beautiful artistry. Pushing the boundaries of his European training in the classical techniques of Old Masters, and calling forth the artistry of Leonardo da Vinci, Vermeer
and Dali — Rossin submits for public thought the inadequacy of cultural traditions to
provoke enlightenment by presenting us with a new language of visual koans.

In Rossin’s compositional simplicity, there is an undercurrent of movement
and silent dialogue between subject and viewer. Are we agreeing to a
consensual hallucination or cultural contradiction?

The paintbrush is the instrument of Rossin’s mind, both philosopher and artist, questioning the overwhelming number of global forces — climate change, AI, our emerging space-faring civilization, and hyper-connectivity — all colliding on the human psyche at the same time.
