War Child Painting

New York-based modern artist Jeremy Penn, was born in 1979 in New York City and studied Fine Art and holds degrees from both the University of Maryland and Pratt Institute. His works have been exhibited globally and received honors from curators at museums such as The Museum of Modern Art, New York and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. In 2017, Penn will be taking part in the University of Michigan Museum of Art Biennial. Penn’s work is prized within some of the most prestigious institutions and modern art collections in the world. Penn’s work explores the initial feelings of a single gaze and the deconstruction of that moment in time. With a heavy emphasis on his subject’s eyes, he creates a seductive power play between the viewer and the art.
