2016159940Pistoia Italy: Gli Ori 2016. Hardcover. As New. A new monograph on the work of Adam Straus published by Gli Ori Italy in November 2016 includes text by Adam Straus edited with an essay by Amei Wallach the award-winning filmmaker art critic journalist and curator. Straus writes about childhood experiences fascinating moments with collectors and how a move to the North Fork of Long Island from Brooklyn in 2003 inspired many of his works. Straus is known for his majestic and luminous depictions of the sublime which are often saturated with a deep concern about social and environmental issues. His penetrating dark humor can transport the viewer to post-apocalyptic worlds and often offers a wry observation on how humans have altered the natural landscape. Work by Adam Straus is in numerous museum collections including the Parrish Art Museum Bridgehampton NY; List Visual Center M.I.T. Cambridge MA; Butler Institute of American Art Youngstown OH; The Art Museum at F.I.U. Miami FL; Mead Art Museum Amherst MA; Tufts University Art Gallery Somerville MA; and the William College Museum of Art Williamstown MA among others. Born in Miami in 1956 Straus lives and works in Riverhead NY. The monograph was published to accompany an exhibition held at the Nohra Aime Gallery New York United States Nov. 23 2016-Jan. 14 2017.
