Life and work
Steven Zevitas is the President and Publisher of the periodical New American Paintings. The publication has featured over 3,000 United States painters. Zevitas founded New American Painting in order to inform art collectors about emerging artists.[1] Zevitas has published New American Paintings for 15 years. Zevitas is active in the Boston art community. [2]
In 2001, Zevitas founded OSP Gallery in Boston. The exhibit was originally a venue for emerging artists that were published in New American Paintings. However, since 2003 the gallery has exhibited work by both emerging and established artists such as Richard Tuttle. [3] Zevitas's gallery is known for exhibiting abstract works on paper. [4]
The gallery, with Zevitas as curator, has also represented Mark Sheinkman and Brice Marden. Under his direction, the gallery entered the mainstream art fair scene in 2007 when Zevitas debuted his gallery at Aqua Art Miami.[5]
