“My work is a compilation of various influences as well as my own view of nature as it exists realistically and abstractly through an artist’s lens. Color plays a critical part in my interpretation of subjects as it conveys the mood and feeling of the overall painting.”
Marina Shrady earned her BFA at the School of Visual Arts and was awarded a merit scholarship from the National Arts Club in Manhattan. She also studied at the Arts Students League and the Corcoran Museum School in Washington DC. She is the granddaughter of sculptor Henry M. Shrady and daughter of artist/sculptor Frederick Shrady. As a child, she spent many hours with her father as he worked in his studio. She developed as an artist from those influences, which may account for some of the sculptural qualities of her work.
Marina has shown at the Kershner Gallery, The Bush Holley Museum, the Fernando Luis Alvarez gallery, the Bendheim gallery School of Visual Arts Gallery in Manhattan, the Duluth Art Institute, the Elaine Benson Gallery in Bridgehampton, NY, the Clarke Galleries in Palm Beach and Stowe, Vermont and the Clarke Fine Arts Gallery in Manhattan, as well as other private galleries in the metropolitan New York area. Tommy Mottola and Michael Bolton are two of many clients who have commissioned work from Ms. Shrady. Her clients include corporate executives, celebrities and private collectors in the New York region.
Marina continues to create inspired contemporary artwork at her mid-century studio and retreat along the Mianus River in Fairfield County, CT.
