Art is subjective, fascinating, and driven by passion. It is a
powerful form of expression for the artists who create it and
for the collectors who use it to express their individuality,
beliefs, feelings, hopes, convictions and philosophies. Art
encourages people to ask questions, introspect, explore
new ideas, experience fresh new perspectives and most
importantly it personalizes and humanizes our individual
surroundings. It is the most celebrated element of any
spectacular interior setting—homes as well as businesses—
and can transform these spaces into unique, beautiful and
engaging environments.
Let us show you how fine art can inspire your passion and
enhance the space where you live and work. Our MAC Art
Gallery houses an extensive collection of artwork from over
60 international artists in a 12,000 sq. ft. of exhibition space.
For over 19 years, MAC Fine Art has provided artwork to
private collectors, art dealers, galleries, designers, architects
and consultants worldwide.

Blues are enjoying a Renaissance! From the strong thalos,
deep ultramarines and bright cobalts to the light blue greys
and muted shades of teal, blue is currently on a hot streak!

BLUE STREAK

HERNÁN SOSA
Peru
The work of Hernán Sosa is the result of an
authentic passion for painting. In an extremely
synthesized method, Sosa mixes the discipline
of an old master with the uninhibited sensibility
of a modernist; layering oil and acrylic painting,
scratching through surfaces to create not
only a visual symphony but a compelling
contemporary narrative. His latest series of
paintings of archetypal swimmers are the
consummate embodiment of both talent and
vision. It is no wonder these works are highly
sought after by collectors world wide.
Lose yourself in the bold, textural, and
unexpectedly familiar works of Hernán Sosa.

WALTER REDONDO
United States
“My paintings are fueled by the expression
of things that come to me through life’s
unseen experiences. Every placement of
color, or covering of another color, affects
and shapes the painting. I love the process of
squeezing paint from the tubes, mixing them
together and watching the colors evolve and
complement each other. The mixing of color
while the oil is still wet on the canvas, the
unfolding of the imagery, represents a singular
journey for me. What is in the process, what
has gone into the mixing, is the very essence of
how life and choices create the person.”
See the action of art making through Walter
Redondo's bold and textural paintings.

DREW ETIENNE
United States
“There is something equally intriguing and
frustrating about peering into spaces that
you cannot physically reach. It triggers
our innate human desire for exploration, I
inevitably use my paintings to explore my own
fascinations with, and fears of, our exponential
advancement of technology, our submersion
in digital realms, the changing landscape of
the physical world around us, and our tenuous
understanding of our relationship with the
cosmos at large.”
Peer into geometric illusions and
discover a new world to explore.

An artist's workshop, where ideas are
executed and imagination takes form.
CHRISTIN PAIGE MINNOTTE
United States
Christin Paige Minnotte is a fine art, conceptual
fashion, and portrait photographer. Her work
is made with the intent to create a new space
where form meets abstraction and the literal or
material meets the aspirational or spiritual. The
subjects in her work have a way of giving form
to the ethereal, elusive or otherworldly while
simultaneously elevating the commonplace to
the soulful.

GUDRUN NEWMAN
Iceland
Gudrun Newman is one of the most successful
contemporary artists to emerge out of Iceland
in recent years. Gudrun started to draw
figures and create art at a very young age.
She studied with noted Icelandic artists Louisa
Matthiasdottir and Hringur Johannesson.
She was also influenced by many of Iceland’s
prominent visual artists, including ERRO and
Johannes S. Kjarval, and credits other European
masters such as Wolf Kahn and Kandinsky as
major forces in her artistic development.

MAXIM LIPZER
Argentina
In the tradition of the greatest artistic minds
of this century, Maxim has set out to discover
his own world. His paintings are expressions
of what he finds along that exploration. Maxim
believes that the meaning of an artwork speaks
to the artist first then conveys itself to the
viewer. However, his concern is not in telling
a story as he insists that the feelings and
emotion that exist behind and motivate his
work have more significance for him than the
subject of each painting.

The Landscape isn’t dead. The unspoken assumption of the
contemporary art world is that landscape is old-fashioned, a
dusty souvenir of the 19th century artists. Today we see an
abstract shift in classic landscape to what art academics refer to
as “landscape referential” artwork. In these works, artists either
modernize the imagery or totally abandon it using only the
natural concepts, forms or colors as a sort of jumping off point
through which they can create wholly non-objective works.

MIKI GUTIERREZ
Mexico
The work of Mexican artist, Miki Gutiérrez,
comes from free creation. He is constantly
experimenting with materials, testing their
ideas and concepts of form. Early on Miki was
influenced by such great sculptors as Henry
Moore, Eduardo Chillida and some elements
of Pedro Coronel, but gradually found his own
voice. Working with clay to produce models
before casting them in bronze, Gutiérrez'
sculptures play with the boundaries of space,
volume and movement in reference to the life’s
universal cyclicality. In polished, smooth lines
and basic circular shapes, his sculpture speaks
to the point of harmony and expresses a visible
sense of rhythm and unity of composition.
Its form is reminiscent of the complementary
interconnectedness of the yin-yang, forming a
dynamic system of duality and interaction.

VERON ENNIS
United States
Veron Ennis is a Florida-based modern abstract painter and sculptor, born just outside of
Washington D.C. Her work addresses control in a chaotic world. Creating a balanced composition
full of unique, energized tension, each painting is arresting and engaging. Her technique marries
precision painting and drawing with improvised and spontaneous applications of paint. She employs
sophisticated use of dramatic color and geometry in her compositions and takes it to the next
level with her three-dimensional cube sculptures. Part of Ennis’ technique depends on the chance
application of her medium. “Falling in and out of control of the work energizes the composition and
pushes compositional boundaries,” says Ennis.

ALEX KVETON Czech Republic
Alex Kveton’s intricate and curvaceous stainless
steel and bronze sculptures are recognized
for their uniqueness, exquisite execution and
high level quality. His flowing metal sculptures
combine both tension and harmony in a poetic
statement. As a young adult, Alex Kveton
enrolled in the Technical School of Machinery
Construction, and later followed his inner
calling into the very selective and prestigious
Prague Academy of Art Architecture and
Design, where he earned his Master's Degree
in Sculpture and Industrial Design. For over
thirty years, Alex Kveton has applied his
knowledge, expertise, and talent to transform
his vision into reality. Alex has created fine
metal sculptures shown in numerous group
and solo exhibitions and many can be found
in prestigious collections in North America,
Europe and Russia.

BOLD FIGURES
In this highly personal art, these artists explore
perceptions of human nature, identity, and gender issues
in the postmodern era. Depictions of figures in varying
degrees of robustness and isolation tell universal stories
of painful pasts and hopeful futures. The haunting, yet
appealing images of the figurative pieces reflect the
power and vulnerability of the complex human condition.

CHRISTOPHER JEFFERIES
United States
Christopher has traveled the world to work with
glass schools and artists of the highest caliber. He
credits his apprenticeship in the Czech Republic with
master glassblower Igor Muller, for acquiring the fine
techniques and designs that inspire his creations
and career. His diversity of experiences and skill also
earned him the recognition of Dale Chihuly, where
he was offered an apprenticeship at the prestigious
Boat House in Seattle, Washington.
These artists work in a fiery
medium known for its fragility,
luster and elegance.
53
RICK EGGERT United States
Rick Eggert was born in Southampton, New York in 1974. He spent his
early childhood in New York, then later moved to Vermont, where he
began working in glass. His quest for inner growth has led him to Tahiti,
Moorea, New Zealand, Australia, and Thailand.
ROB STERN
United States

glass, Rob Stern has risen to the top of
his field. From 1990-95 he trained at
John Lewis Glass factory in Oakland,
California, and has advanced degrees

SARA CONCA
United States
Sara Conca is an ‘Abstract Expressionist’
from Florida. Her work is an interesting
combination of reverse painting on plexiglass
and oil on canvas. At first look Conca’s work is
a wonderful coloration set in specific palettes
of color, but a second glance reveals deeper
mythical forms and underwater seascapes
reveal themselves. What makes her work ‘Art’
is that she creates works that beg to be seen
many times, for the viewer has the expectation
of gaining new experiences with each viewing.
Her new work is inspired by her Florida roots,
as she has created a fresh new aquatic mystical
series using natural mixed media such as raw
silver dust, 18k gold leafing, ground pigment,
mica flakes and natural crystals.

Brenda Heim's otherworldly artwork
is influenced by Zen ink painting.
BRENDA HEIM United States
Brenda Heim’s paintings and sculptures follow
a long line of freethinking artists that include
the New York School Action Painters and the
Color Field Painters of the 1950s. By borrowing
the Action Painters affinity for spontaneous and
unorthodox paint application, with the Color
Field Painter’s emphasis on one’s emotional
state of mind as expressed through color, Heim
has amassed her very own body of work that
is flavored with an enchanting absence of the
known world.
“Art has the ability to give something back
beyond wealth, fame or critical acclaim. The joy
in art making comes when one’s mind, body and
spirit are relaxed and set free from the barriers
of Western, Euro-centric intellectual protocol.
My experience with Zen brush painting, coupled
with emotional release techniques has brought
me over thirty years of constantly renewing and
revitalizing life-sustaining vigor in the studio.”

Phillip Lynam creates vivid pieces
by layering marks and pattern to
create space behind the surface.
“I am interested in exploring the potential for a painting to create an
immersive, dislocating experience. My favorite moments with a painting
are when I realize that I have slowed down, that I am blocking out the rest
of the room, and that I am not just looking at the painting, but looking into
it.” Phillip’s work is characterized by vivid, glowing color, a sense of internal
illumination and complex layering of marks, patterns, and fragments of
images that allude to space behind the surface of the paintings.

ELENA BOND
Russia
A few decades ago, a gifted young artist, a shy
girl who would grow up to become Elena Bond,
was ushered into the famed “Monet Room”
in the Hermitage Museum. This Impressionist
space on the second floor of the former
palace, once a gathering place for Russian
courtiers, was now a gallery for art. The walls
were adorned with a suite of eight paintings
by Claude Monet. The aspiring young Russian
artist stood before these brilliantly colored
canvases, so full of light and joy and unabashed
beauty, and she was transformed and inspired
by the free and fleeting brushwork of Monet. In
these eight paintings were all the ingredients
for her future work. To this day she remembers
vividly the sense of ownership, connection, and
chemistry she felt towards Impressionism.

PIER TOFFOLETTI
Italy
Pier was born in 1957 in the province of Udine
(Italy). His passion for art was obvious from a
very early age, and his family quickly realized
he had inherited his grandfather’s artistic
talent. When he was 12, the gift from an aunt
of two books on Michelangelo and Cézanne
stimulated him to try and copy the illustrations.
Instead of buying the things that attracted
other boys his own age, as soon as he had a
little money, Pier headed for the general store
in nearby Cividale to stock up on painting
requisites. Even today, Pier can smell the spices
and oils every time he remembers the shop.

Jason Myers captures intense
emotional moments from life
in his artwork.
87
JASON MYERS
United States
The work of Jason Myers is a contained
emergence of a figure trapped between a
psychological and physical environment.
Myers’ content both questions and comments
on society and the information to which we
are exposed. The artworks are portraits of
random intense emotional moments drawn
directly from life, combined with the impending
political and societal influence from our culture.
88

COLOR MAKES A
COMEBACK
Bold hues are charging back in a big way. Rich
and striking tones add dimension and charm
to any space. With their complex rhythm and
textures, these colorful paintings draw us in
and stimulate the senses.
