Synopsis

"Riffs on Immortality" is a new series of oil paintings by Keith Bland that contemplates the universal theme of immortality as imagined by different cultures; in particular, what elements or expressions of a face render it ‘immortal’. Maureen Tracy Venti's poetry, written in collaboration with Keith’s paintings, explores immortality as an elusive concept that remains mysterious to us all.

In 1990 Keith resigned from his executive position at a Wall Street investment firm to focus solely on painting, which has always been his life’s passion.Keith opened his first painting studio in a small apartment on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and studied nights at The Art Students League of New York. He then moved to the small but vibrant arts community of Oxford, Mississippi. It was here he began to establish his reputation as a contemporary portrait artist, specializing in large format 3-foot-square faces of children. In the spring of 1994, Keith followed the brilliant light and color to Key West, Florida. He divides his time between Key West and New York City, where he maintains a second painting studio.
