Paula Rubino
Paula Rubino is a painter making contemporary imagery with classical techniques and materials.
Spare compositions are arranged to evoke calm, color is placed to heighten mood, and multi-layered, broad brushwork builds a complex yet fresh surface. Slightly absurd compositions, elements of humor, beauty, and strangeness are sometimes employed to convey timeless, subtle social messages.
Rubino has exhibited throughout the United States and Europe, including solo exhibitions at SCAPE, Los Angeles; Galerie Oljemark, Helsinki; Ann Long Fine Art, Charleston, SC; and Grenning Gallery, Sag Harbor, NY. Group exhibitions include Hirschl & Adler Galleries, New York; WH Patterson Galleries, London; Solomon Gallery, Dublin; Panorama Museum, Germany; Haugar Vestfold Kuntsmuseum, Norway; and Rauma Art Museum, Finland.
Rubino trained at the Florence Academy of Art in Florence, Italy, and furthered her studies with Richard Serrin in Florence, Italy and Odd Nerdrum in Norway. She also graduated with degrees in economics and law from the University of Florida.
Born into a family of snowbirds in Trenton, NJ, Rubino is currently based in Stuart, Florida, and also divides her time between Laitila, Finland and Florence, Italy.
