Bob Gherardi Paintings, Stewartsville, NJ
I was born and raised in suburban New Jersey. My artistic vision is formed by experiences with the people and places around me: visually interesting objects and hallowed places, emotional memories, events and their associations.
My paintings are often selected in juried exhibitions with distinguished jurors from The MET, The Guggenheim, and The Whitney museums. Most recently, Cara Manes, collection specialist of The MoMA, chose my work to be exhibited in The Wide Open 8 National Juried Art Show, Brooklyn, NY.
My paintings are featured in the books, The Powerfully Beautiful and The Art of Man Quarterly Journal Vol.4, where it is featured on the cover. Both publications reside in the Thomas J. Watson Library in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. You can also find my work in the May/June 2018 issue of Watercolor Artist Magazine where his work was one of 9 selected from thousands for their Watermedia Showcase Competition and in the Dec/Jan. 2019 issue of International Artist Magazine where my painting, "I Promise", is featured in their landscape competition. I was also delighted to have been selected for the Artist Focus in Aug. 2017 American Art Collector Magazine.
My paintings are in private collections all over the world. I earned my BFA at Syracuse University and currently reside in Stewartsville, NJ with my beautiful wife and son.
