Just a 45-minute train ride from New York City, actress Sharon Stone is displaying 19 of her paintings at the C. Parker Gallery in Greenwich, Connecticut. The exhibition is titled Sharon Stone: Welcome To My Garden, and it's the first time her art has been shown to the public outside of Los Angeles.
“I created these works to understand the essence of pure creativity that comes from heartfelt truth, to let go of the noise, the judgments, and the pollution of our societal pulls,” said Stone.
Collectors and art world luminaries, including Jerry Saltz, the Senior Art Critic for New York Magazine and winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Criticism have praised this talented artists' art.
Curated by Tiffany Benincasa, the owner and curator of C. Parker Gallery, she is thrilled to display Stone's paintings. 'We are honored to present the highly anticipated East Coast debut of Sharon Stone's powerful art, for our tenth anniversary season,' said Benincasa. 'This new exhibition offers a never-before-seen panorama into Sharon Stone's creative prowess. The artist invites viewers on a journey through the vibrant landscapes of her imagination, reflecting her inner world. A testament to Stone's profound talents.'
Stone's acting accolades include a Golden Globe award, a Prime-time Emmy Award, and an Academy Award nomination.
Recently she was honored as the Global Citizen of the Year at the 2023 United Nations UNCA Awards and the 2023 Courage Award. As an internationally recognized global cultural leader, her other honors include the Nobel Peace Summit Award Laureate; the Women Making History Award from the National Women's History Museum; and the Einstein Spirit of Achievement Award.
Stone was also named a Commander of the Order of Arts and Letters in France; the Harvard Humanitarian Award; and Human Rights Campaign Humanitarian Award.
This exhibition has been extended until February 20, 2024 at C. Parker Gallery.
