Richard Bernstein

RICHARD BERNSTEIN (1939-2002) Richard Bernstein was one of the very few artists that fared well in both the esthetic and commercial art scene. As an oil painter and illustrator, his work portrayed simple shapes and forms with infinite beauty. He had the singular honor of doing the cover art for Andy Warhol's Interview magazine where he created an unmistakeably identifiable style that was instantly recognizable as the "Bernstein Look." As a "chronicler of his times," his artwork exemplified the 'pop' genre.
