Come Out and Join HARLEMITE for A Cocktail Reception And Pre-Season Black Art Sale $100 Painting Raffle Silent Auction All Displayed Art for Purchase “From the Renaissance of Old Harlem… a new history is being told through my art.” Roosevelt “Black Rose” Taylor is a dynamic, versatile, and well sought after Master Painter. He is the son of parents who both were artists; his father, an R&B singer, and his mother, a gifted painter, whom he says, ‘…I inherited the touch from.’ Black Rose was born and raised in Harlem, where he still resides, and has been developing, defining, and perfecting his talent since he was a child. The diversity of his work is evidenced in the various ways he transforms his clients’ visions into one-of-a-kind manifestations on canvas. Currently featured in Ebony magazine, in connection with the 15th Anniversary Celebration of The Harlem Fine Arts Show, this also marks his 15th year in the Art industry. Black Rose’s commissioned original masterpieces are prominent throughout Harlem and are permanently installed in historic landmark buildings across New York City. His work has been curated internationally and acquired by private collectors and proprietors alike. He is highly recognized for the meticulous way he captures the essence and aura of his subjects, replicating their human nature with warm precision. Black Rose is widely acknowledged, and eminently regarded, as a member of “The New” Harlem Renaissance. His reputable work makes a significant contribution to the renewed cultural richness of contemporary Harlem. The founder and creator of a new art program, The Harlem Art Club, Taylor is providing access to art classes for children of the community, free of charge. As a testament of his dedication to the rebirth of his hometown, Black Rose created and designed an exclusive work of art, as a gift to the legendary clothing designer, Dapper Dan. The innovative portrait was presented to honor Dapper Dan’s much anticipated and successful collaboration with the Fashion House, Gucci. Black Rose’s work has been featured on Good Morning America, in a documentary titled, “Dear New York” by the John A. Reisenbach Foundation and two major cable network shows: “Run the World” and “Harlem” In addition, notable publication mentions include: The Amsterdam News, Niji Magazine, South Carolina Voyager, Princeton Magazine, Shaken New Daily, Brew Bound News, and Harlem World News.
