About the Item

Edie Nadelhaft “Fine Detail I” Oil on canvas, 22 x 48 inches. Offered unframed. Edie Nadelhaft's bold, large-scale, colorful monolithic oil paintings of bodega flowers were born from her early impressions of the gritty visual landscape that greeted her upon moving to New York City in the late 1990s. Her unapologetically hedonistic work embraces the profound sensual and emotional potency of bright color and high graphic drama, drawing inspiration from the paintings of Edouard Manet and Andy Warhol, the larger-than-life billboards that shroud buildings along East Houston Street, and the surreal, dreamlike films of David Lynch. The artist's choice of flower, the Gerber Daisy, reflects the vivid, stimulating, and often overpowering environment of her adopted home. Nadelhaft notes, "When I moved to New York, I found the city visually overwhelming and grim. In flower stands throughout the Lower East Side, these raucous bursts of brilliant color appeared delightful and exciting in the most unlikely of settings. They buoyed my spirits, both before and especially after 9/11, and I painted them with the same sense of exuberance and determination." "I titled this series "Lust 4 Life" as a nod to the enduringly gritty song by Iggy Pop and that other renowned painter of flowers, Vincent Van Gogh. The blooms I portray exude that unmistakable "New York Attitude," composed of equal parts ambition, persistence, and, most of all, resilience—in a word, pluck." flower painting, colorful painting, still life, abstract art, female artist, Gerber daisy, contemporary painting, contemporary oil painting, floral painting, flower painting, daisy painting, bright colors, floral design, abstraction, larger than life, floral landscape, representational painting, petal painting, purple, red, blue, petals, flora
