THOMAS DELLERT
THE AMERICAN NEON NIGHT

Thomas (born on July 12, 1953) is a Swedish multimedia artist, photographer, painter, actor, singer, songwriter, poet, filmmaker, director, fashion designer, theatre set designer, and interior decorator.

The American Neon Night' project expresses the true colors of New York and Miami, which I have been in love with since my first visit to New York in 1968. I have returned TO NYC many times until I finally decided to live there. My years in Manhattan are some of the best in my life. I was especially fascinated by what is called Americana .Typical American places like Diners Cocktails Bars and Skyscrapers lit up by night.

I love the Neon lights of Broadway and the lit-up Ocean Drive of Miami. They all have this specific magic you hardly find anywhere else in the world. Believe me, I lived and worked for many years in cities like Paris, London, Venice, Berlin, and now Florence, my new home, which is extremely beautiful in an old antique way. But the Cinematic metallic night lights of Miami and Manhattan are can only be found in the states, where the neon is reflected in the lacquer of the large American cars and in the rain-covered asphalt. To walk along an avenue at night in Manhattan is like taking part in a colorful movie.
