Julian Schnabel (b. 1951, Brooklyn, NY) is a painter and filmmaker known as an integral member of the American Neo-Expressionists. Schnabel’s signature works are filled with raw emotion and contain an underlying edge of brutality while still being suffused with energy. Schnabel describes how he is “aiming at an emotional state, a state that people can literally walk into and be engulfed.” This portfolio was influenced by the pastoral and Natural History works of American artist Cy Twombly, which Schnabel viewed in Rome in the late 70s.

Schnabel currently lives and works between New York, NY and Montauk, NY. The artist has shown at the Vennice Biennale, and his works are held in the collections of the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Whitney Museum of American Art; and the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; among others.
