  31. Primarily a self taught painter, Alex Venezia, first became aware of the transcendent power of art during a high-school art lesson on chiaroscuro while examining the works of Caravaggio. This class marked a unique turning point for the young student as he began to consider a vocation in the arts. Searching for new art experiences he frequented the Chrysler Museum of Art in Norfolk, Virginia where he was able to fill his eyes with the works of the Masters and make copies. Venezia has sought out and studied classical technique with many of todays top representational painters including: Colleen Barry, Daniel Sprick, Michael Klein, and Jeff Hein. "In his words, Inspiration comes in many forms, and usually far from the easel, but there’s nothing like seeing the work of an artist that you hold in high regard in person. It has a way of putting me in my place and motivating me to become a better painter." And so it has. Venezia took home the 2017 first place prize in the Still Life Competition at the prestigious Grand Central Atelier in New York and 1st Place Painting & People’s Choice Award: International Portrait Competition April 2019- The Portrait Society of America. Alex currently maintains a studio in Raleigh, North Carolina where he produces work and teaches occasionally. Alex Venezia’s first New York City-based solo exhibition opens this November at Arcadia Contemporary (November 13 - December 5, 2021)
