An exciting workshop took place this past April and May in the South of France with five teachers and 24 students and patrons coming together to paint in the land of the Van Gogh landscapes. This fine art project, dubbed Americans in Paris, was created in 2016 by artist, curator and gallery owner Vanessa Rothe of Vanessa Rothe Fine Art Gallery. The project comprises a group of contemporary realist artists following in the footsteps of the historic masters who had traveled to Paris to be inspired by its culture, art and beauty.
Americans in Paris aims to introduce some of today's leading fine artists in realism to exciting new subjects, often only discovered by traveling abroad, as well as study group composition from the masters in some of the top museums in the world. It also encourages a rare comradery among living artists today who are often alone in their studios to come together to learn, grow and share. The group is celebrating its sixth year of various exhibitions and events, including shows at New York City's prestigious Salmagundi Club, Arcadia Contemporary, pop-up shows in Paris and demonstrations at Laguna College of Art and Design. The fine art project is officially sponsored by Raymar, Sennelier, Savoir Faire and Cerno Revelite, with a special thank you from Rothe to the Salmagundi Club.
2022 marked the first year that Americans in Paris opened this academic workshop to the public, teaming up with Workshops in France, led by artist Julie Snyder. Throughout the following pages is a snapshot of that idyllic experience.
