Come join us in the Bistro to view our new art
installation.
John Kneapler
The Art Students League Exhibition Outreach Program @
Park Avenue Bistro
Park Avenue Bistro is currently featuring work that explores the
abstraction of landscape.
John Kneapler
is a gestural abstract
landscape painter, whose striking and unique color combinations are
defined by his powerful brush strokes and keen sense of fluidity.
John’s ability to dance with color make for paintings that radiate
with energy, confidence, and liveliness.
A graduate of Pratt
Institute, John has been painting at the Art Students League of New
York for the past 14 years.
Other recent solo shows were held at the the Gregory Way
Gallery (California) and the Syd Entel Galleries (Florida).
Also an accomplished designer, John is president of the
award-winning New York based firm, John Kneapler Design.

The ongoing partnership between the Park
Avenue Bistro and the Exhibition Outreach
Program of the Art Students League of New York
surrounds diners with the power and beauty of
contemporary art. The partnership’s mission is
to create the rare environment where the
sensual, intellectual, and communal pleasures of
dining and art merge and enhance one another.
Bon appétit and pleasurable viewing.

The
Art Students League of New York
Founded in 1875 by artists, for artists, the Art Students League
of New York provides affordable studio-based art education of
the highest quality to anyone with the interest in making art.
Great artists have trained, taught, and exhibited at the League
and enriched its community. Apprenticeships, classes, lectures,
workshops, exhibitions, and residencies uphold the League’s
mission to support “artists and students who intend to make art
a profession” and to cultivate “a spirit of fraternity among art
students.”
In July 2006, the League initiated the new Exhibition Outreach
program under director Leah McCloskey to bring the work of our
emerging artists to exhibitions in various venues throughout the
New York metropolitan region.
