Closing Reception: November 5, 12pm -3pm

Brian Stephens was raised in the quaint town of North Stonington, Connecticut. He became interested in photography before realizing his passion for painting in its roots. Stephens received classical training at the Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts, CT. He then attended the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris. Very early on Stephens started showing his work to the public with undeniable enthusiasm. As a result, since 1996 his art has been featured in over 100 exhibitions internationally. In 2004, he received a MFA in Painting from the City College of New York where he also experimented with printmaking. Stephens has been affiliated with galleries in the USA, New York City, Boston, San Francisco, and in Europe, Italy, France, Poland and Denmark.

Even though painting is like breathing for Stephens, he also sometimes is traversing the mediums including a wide array of materials within his pieces and working on video and installation projects. He currently divides his time between Old Lyme, CT, Brooklyn, NY and Łódź, Poland.
