A single figure can carry an entire world in Neil Nagy’s paintings. His expressive use of line, color, and gesture draws on a lifelong engagement with the human form, shaped by the Bay Area figurative tradition, his experiences in Mexico, and his interest in Japanese art. The result is a body of work that gives close observation an unmistakably personal voice.
Neil has exhibited alongside Bay Area figures including Richard Diebenkorn, David Park, and Nathan Oliveira. Meeting him at the gallery is an opportunity to hear from an artist whose sustained attention to a subject has continued to open up new possibilities within it.
For longtime collectors, we hope this will be a welcome chance to reconnect. For those discovering Neil’s work, begin with a drawing, a passage of color, or a gesture that holds your attention. Join us to meet Neil and spend time with his work and the other artists represented in the gallery.
