After many years exhibiting his art throughout the country and abroad, acclaimed artist, composer and a Los Angeles icon, Zinovy Shersher, displays his art back home to LA. On June 22, a collection of his paintings will be exhibited at Harmony Color Gallery & Printers in Van Nuys, CA.

After over forty years painting, writing and recording music, Russian-American artist Zinovy Shersher (www.zinovy.com) has created a unique blend of colorful abstract images which exude the soul of whatever image he portrays, whether an image of a musician, two lovers, or even a bowl of fruit, his paintings will leave you with a sense of wonder and elation. His vast collection of art spanning many decades has seen much of the world and are admired in many top private collections.

"I want people to hear the music in my paintings" says Mr. Shersher as much of the painted work displays his other passion in life which is music. He is an accomplished composer, singer, song writer and plays many instruments. Recently he was inducted to the Grammy Board as a voting member for the work on his eighth album which he recorded with famed composer Shelley Cohen in 2005.

As a resident of Los Angeles for over 25 years, Zinovy has become a staple of his community through his work with UID Arts Foundation helping kids and seniors, and in 1991 he received a Certificate of Appreciation by the Los Angeles County for designing and painting a 3000 square foot mural entitled “We Have a Future”. This massive mural looks over a community center in Downtown and got lots of press for being a community project allowing children and teens to paint along with the artist. He was also commissioned to do a painting with the first Oscar winners, including Mary Pikford, Charlie Chaplin and other film legends for the 65th Academy Awards. The Painting was exhibited at the Hollywood Entertainment Museum for years later.

Paul Eubanks, owner of Harmony Color exclaimed, “We are honored to have such a magnificent talent display his long career at our gallery…we plan to make the most of the limited time we have to display his vivid art.” The exhibit opens to the public on June 22 and runs till Aug. 12.
