Larry Oskin
FINE ARTS PHOTOGRAPHER
Larry Oskin studied graphic design, photography, journalism and fine art at the State University College of New York at Buffalo. Larry Oskin has exhibited his works in private galleries and public art museums as well as at art festivals inclusive of the world-famous Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, NY. Earlier in his career, Larry Oskin was also Director of Marketing for Circle Fine Art, which was respected as the world’s largest fine art publisher and private art gallery chain, where he provided marketing for Peter Max, Erté, Agam, Rockwell, Neiman, Mouley, Hoffman, Calder, Walt Disney Studios and many internationally respected artists. Larry Oskin launched Art Beautique, dedicated to celebrating inspirations of beauty. Larry Oskin notes, “My Art Beautique work is very stylized as abstract photo impressionism. I believe that photography remains one of our best artistic forms of creative media and visual expression. Through the fine art of photography, we are able to share what we can see, sense and feel, yet not touch!” The Art Beautique collection celebrates the beauty of women, glamour, nature, flowers, animals, cityscapes, world capitals, the Washington, DC monuments and Judaica art.
