In Frederick Brosen’s stunning watercolors, the quotidian corners of grand cities – namely New York, Paris, Rome and Florence – become iconic views in and of themselves. For the artist’s seventh solo show with Hirschl & Adler Modern, Brosen continues his career-long celebration of New York while also turning his gaze to the shores of postcard-worthy Provincetown. In twelve new watercolors, two seemingly disparate landscapes are united by the artist’s masterful touch. Although Provincetown’s population of 3,000 is miniscule in comparison to New York’s overwhelming population of 8.5 million, Brosen renders these two distinct locations with the same sense of placidity and intimacy.
* Limited Edition Hand Signed Archival Prints to Commemorate 2024 Museum of the City of New York Show have all been done in collaboration with Master Printer Mark Sarazen.

New Yorker Frederick Brosen is well known as a meticulous visual chronicler of New York City’s streets, capturing through his astonishing watercolor brushwork the complex layers of the urban landscape. For this installation, he has turned his eye upon the great bucolic heart of the city—Manhattan’s Central Park. Through a quartet of carefully observed scenes, he chronicles a landscape that is both changing and seemingly timeless. Cycling through Central Park across Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring—from the widest to the most intimate of vantages—these four quietly iconic paintings capture a year in some of the most historic places in this verdant urban masterpiece.
