Paul Benney

Self-taught Painter


Born in London in May of 1959. Moved to New York City in the early eighties where he was a prominent figure in the downtown Neo-expressionist scene. Today his work is shown at the Met, the Brooklyn Museum, and the National Portrait Gallery in London. 

Whimsical and sublime, his paintings reward the attentive viewer.
