GEORGE ALPERT George Alpert's works have been called "evocative and outrageous, dazzling and poetic." They are so daring, so titillating, that they defy mere words; they must be seen, and experienced to be truly appreciated. His approach to art is refreshingly varied, offering a subject and style for everyone--from abstract to surrealistic to figurative. A native New Yorker, Alpert first gained international attention as a photographer. His photography work, and later his paintings, have been exhibited in major galleries and museums throughout the United States and Europe, such as the Everson Museum of Art in New York, the Heard Museum in Arizona, and Il Diaframma in Italy. Described as "one of America's great master photographers," Alpert rounded the Sohophoto Foundation, was Director of the Alfred Stieglitz Gallery in New York for more than 10 years, and served as a member of the faculty of The New School for Social Research. He also taught at that institution and at the Parsons School of Design, and he has lectured at New York University. In addition, Alpert is a prolific writer and has authored several books, including George AIpert Paintings, Taos Pueblo, The Queens, and Second Chance To Live--The Suicide Syndrome. He also is listed in Who's Who In American Art and In the "New York Art Review." Alpert's credits are endless and well-deserved. His photography ranges in subject matter from exquisite images of the female figure to photos of the Southwest that have an almost spiritual quality to them. Even the most ordinary image becomes extraordinary as captured by Alpert's lens; the viewer is transcended beyond the surface of an image into its soul. Alpert explains his philosophy about a photograph: "A photo has to have life; it has to have composition; but, most of all, it has to have a soul. Any subject is valid in this art so long as it is handled artistically." Alpert is a brilliant artist, renowned for his irreverence. Take, for example, his piece "The Last Supper," a large acrylic on canvas that plays off the Leonardo da Vinci piece. At the unveiling of Alpert's version, which was delivered by armored truck, guests were treated to side-by-side portraits of both Alpert and da Vinci. Alpert's depiction of "The Last Supper" was considerably less solemn than da Vinci's, portraying Jesus holding a pizza while the disciples partake of soda and Gallo. In an open letter to da Vinci, Alpert wrote, "...in seeking some truths in 'The Last Supper'...I have also played with time frame...what has really happened in our world since 500 years ago." All proceeds from the sale of this work went to the Scottsdale Artists' School Building Fund. Also an accomplished sculptor, Alpert sold out his original 60-edition "El Ropo" cigar sculpture and created a second piece that features an "El Ropo" box with ten solid-bronze cigars. Besides his talents with camera, paintbrush, and bronze, Alpert is a composer and plays several musical instruments--keyboards, piano, organ, clarinet, and saxophone--and, at one time, he owned and operated a record company. Fellow artist, Earl Linderman, describes Alpert as "a human dynamo, a third stage rocket in ignition, a comet slicing through the galaxies of life." Alpert himself cites artists like Hans Holmann, Willem de Kooning, Earl Linderman, Pablo Picasso, Fritz Scholder, and Rufino Tamayo as the sources of much of his artistic education--teaching him about "emotional content, color, freedom, audacity, and power and boldness in subject matter. These masters," he says, "are always in my mind and heart when I am painting and when I am not painting." Perhaps Linderman sums up Alpert's art best: "Alpert's paintings contain belly laughs of visual humor while some are euphonious poetry in motion. His art has a masterful touch. It can be airy, light and outrageously funny, figurative or pure abstraction .... His colors are melodic and congruent. Each painting is a symphony of sonorous splendor."
