PAINTINGS

Artist Burton Morris’ paintings put an energetic and colorful spin on today’s culture. In his post-Pop style, Morris boldly projects an enticing mood of high energy and optimism portraying images that people relate to in everyday life. His distinctive style is characterized by radiant black outlines and vivid colors that emit energy and optimism in all of his artwork. “ I want to inspire and intrigue my audience by challenging the way they look at everyday ideas around us.”

He first gained national attention in the mid-1990s when his artwork was chosen to hang on the set of the NBC hit television series “Friends.” Over the years, his artwork has been selected for the 76th Academy Awards®, the Paris World Cup Soccer Games, the 38th Montreux Jazz Festival, the 2004 Summer Olympic Games and the 2006 MLB All-Star Game. He has created signature artwork for Absolut Vodka, H.J. Heinz Corporation and Perrier among many others. In addition, Morris’ artwork has raised millions of dollars for countless charities worldwide.

Burton Morris original artworks are displayed internationally and are featured in the collections of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, The Jimmy Carter Center and The Ella Sharp Museum. One-man exhibitions include Sotheby’s of Amsterdam and the International Olympic Museum, Lausanne, Switzerland
