At Art Basel this week in Miami, legendary actor Pierce Brosnan has been welcomed into the art world, debuting his curated collection in partnership with OLEA. The five paintings were on display for viewing at the Markowicz’s Fine Art Booth at Art Miami. Brosnan first made traction and gained worldwide recognition in 2018 when his painting of Bob Dylan had sold for 1.4 million euros in Cannes, at the 25th amfAR Gala, Cinema against AIDS.
The paintings at Art Basel evoke a sense of self-reflection across various art forms such as portraits, landscapes, abstracts, and sketches. The art feels intimate and Brosnan’s overall approach can be credited to his life as an actor, producer, philanthropist and environmental activist.
