Organizer
Steven Assael, born in New York City in 1957, is nationally recognized as one of the leading representational figurative artists of this generation. His ennobling and psychologically penetrating portrayal of the human image blends elements of naturalism, romanticism, and the contemporary with the techniques of the old masters.
