About Pie in Sky
A riot of colour—blues, green, pink, orange, and yellow pop from the canvas in this lively painting by Adam Cohen. The American abstract artist is known for his grand gestural style and his use of lush, layers of colour to heighten expression. The lavish use of white and black serves to highlight the brilliant colour palette.“His fields of colour and texture have the breadth and openness of the openness of the sky or aerial views from the earth’s surface.” Carter Ratcliff, art critic
Cohen studied at Philadelphia’s Tyler School of Art and lived and painted in Rome for a year. After many successful years as an illustrator, he returned to his first love--painting. Adam Cohen lives and paints in the Catskills, NY. Cohen has exhibited extensively in the US, Europe, Asia and most recently in Amsterdam and Venice.
