As a preview for an exciting exhibition in January, Neil Nagy is presenting a painting of his new series in the gallery. Nagy fans are already talking about the new exhibition that will be unlike anything that you have ever seen. About 50 invited guests and Nagy collectors will be able to watch him work and look over his shoulder while he is painting – for the first time ever he is going to allow an audience to witness the beginning of a painting and it gets even better, so stay tuned.
If you are not among his collectors yet, make sure to be on that guest list. You don’t want to miss this.
Christian Hohmann Fine Art will present Nagy’s work at the Los Angeles Art Show (www.laartshow.com) in January 2010.

Also Christian will be on the Joey English Show (www.joeyenglish.com) locally on 94.3 FM (KNEWS) or streaming on http://www.knewsradio.com/ on this coming Sunday, December 6th at 4pm to talk about David Schneuer.
David Schneuer (1905-1988) is currently exhibited at the Museum of Montparnasse in Paris. More than 80 years after David Schneuer left Paris to return to Munich, Germany and more than 20 years after his passing, his work returns to the city of lights and is honored by the Musee de Montparnasse in the same district in Paris where the young David Schneuer lived in 1924. It is thanks to the tireless efforts of the Estate of the late David Schneuer that his work is exhibited around the world. While Schneuer’s Fine Prints have been sold around the world, only very few galleries are authorized to sell his originals. The Hart Gallery was one of these few galleries and in 2005 the Harts hosted the largest exhibition of originals in a commercial gallery in the United States ever for the 100th anniversary of David Schneuer’s birth. Hohmann Fine Art continues the relationship to the estate and is currently showing an extraordinary selection of Schneuer originals and Fine Prints that shouldn’t be missed.
Unless you want to make a trip to Paris, this is the second best opportunity to view that many works at one time right now. The show will be on display until December 12th and also during the upcoming El Paseo Art Walk on Thursday, December 3rd from 5-9pm.
After a soft opening in October Christian Hohmann Fine Art officially opened doors with a Grand Opening Celebration last Saturday, November 28th. Over 350 invited guests came to see the new quarters of ex-Hart Gallery director Hohmann. Among the guests were German actor Udo Kier, director of the Palm Springs Art Museum Steven Nash and his wife Carol, actor John Callahan with Kim Hayden, Palm Springs Life Magazine editor Steven Biller and the magazine’s fashion expert Susan Stein, public art coordinator of the city of Palm Desert Deborah Schwartz, Desert Magazine editor Carla Breer Howard, singer Sharon Di Haworth, TV host Gloria Greer with daughter Ann Greer, GM of the Virginia Waring International Piano Competition, artist Neil Nagy, artist/writer Kimberly Nichols, CBS2 reporter Natalie Brand, GM of the Parker Hotel Thomas Meding and wife Alisa, Eva and Ed Hart, the owners of The Hart Gallery that Christian used to run as well as many collectors and patrons.
With champagne and appetizers the guests celebrated and viewed the work of late artist David Schneuer (1905-1988) who lived and worked in Paris and Munich in the 1920s and 30s and who escaped from Nazi Germany in 1933 and settled in Tel Aviv. Hohmann is showing several original paintings and works on paper that were just recently released by the estate. This very collectable artist is currently shown at the Museum de Montparnasse in Paris (see separate news). If you missed the opening, you can still see the exhibition during art walk on Thursday, December 3rd from 5-9pm through December 12th 2009.
