Posted on: 3/15/2010 5:22 PM
The Atlanta Botanical Garden will be in bloom this spring not only with colorful flowers but also the vibrant botanical prints and scarves designed by legendary textile artist Vera. Digital Arts Studio is proud to have provided the imaging, printing and framing services for this exciting exhibit. The exhibition will be... presented March 16-May 30 .Vera, as artist Vera Neumann was known worldwide, designed fashion,home décor and personal accessories -- denoted by her signature ladybug -- and the extensive archives and brand of the artist, who died in 1993, are managed by Atlanta-based The Vera Company. From the 1940s-80s, Neumann produced hundreds of designs first for placemats and scarves and later for an ever-expanding empire of clothing and housewares. Her philosophy: Fine art should be accessible to everyone,not just a select few, and it should not be relegated to the walls. Rather, people should uplift their lives by surrounding themselves with art in all aspects of their lives. Her work was sold in thousands of stores around the world, capturing admirers such as Marilyn Monroe, Alexander Calder, Bess Truman and John Lennon. In1972, the Smithsonian invited her to inaugurate its resident associate program, the same year it presented a retrospective of her work. Her designs also have been shown at MOMA in New York and in countless galleries around the world. A new coffee table book, Vera: The Art and Life of an Icon, will be published this spring.The Garden’s exhibition will showcase the joy expressed in the artist’s work, represented by dozens of original watercolors, textiles, prints and other items, with many available for purchase in the Garden Gift Shop.

Digital Arts Studio Named Ricardo Celma's Publisher

Digital Arts Studio, of Atlanta, has been named exclusive
publisher of the renowned Argentinean painter Ricardo
Celma, the young master of Hyperrealism. 
Noted critics have
proclaimed that
Ricardo Celma is the modern Velazquez of the 21st century. Celma's unique art
often combines a background of museum art, with varied classical themes,
with his own modern images in the foreground.
Digital Arts assembled 15 original paintings from international collectors of
Celma's work,and from The Art Appreciation Foundation who provided 8 original
Celma's from its world renowned collection of masters and mid-emerging superior
artists.
Digital Arts Studio announced the release of these 15 Celma's, each in a Limited
Edition of 95 hand embellished full size giclees, on premium canvas, with a
Certificate of Authenticity signed personally by Ricardo Celma. Whereas Celma
originals have been resold in galleries and Art Fairs for prices approaching
$100,000, these limited edition,full size giclees, will be available to the
public for under $1,000.
Ricardo Celma, in his early 30's has been painting for 20 years. In Buenos
Aires, at the age of 5, his genius was recognized and reported in numerous
magazines and newspaper articles...proclaiming " a born again Velazquez ".
Already he has inspired several dozen artists who have attended his workshops
for emerging fine artists.
In the opinion of Lloyd S. Rubin, collector and gallery owner, " the paintings
of Ricardo Celma's hyper realistic angelic figures will grace the walls of
museums worldwide in the near future...along side of the old masters." Rubin
stated," Celma continues to create timeless masterpieces."
These images can be viewed on this website, under "Featured Artists" on in
person at the Digital Arts Studio Gallery during regular business hours.
