It’s almost hard to believe that the LUSTER Exhibit at the National Corvette Museum is coming to a close, with only a month left to catch it live.

I’m excited to share that my Corvette art, MOMENTUM, which features CREATION and EVOLUTION, was seen in the New York Times as part of a feature article on America’s Sports Car titled “Corvette Bucked a Sports Cars Decline. Can It Thrive in an E.V. Era?” Also featured is my AMERICA painting of a Harley-Davidson chopper from 2016.
Beauty in the Abstract: A.D Cook and Hyper-Realism Art — magazine interview by Robert Maxhimer, Director of Cultural Affairs & Education at the National Corvette Museum, Bowling Green, Kentucky.
Long before artificial intelligence consumed all conversations related to the blurred line of assisted creativity, artists had often found themselves at the center of the question, “How is art defined?” Art, whether a sculpture, painting, photograph, theatrical production, or film, is inherently subjective and interpreted only through the eyes of the individual viewing it at that given moment. The viewer consumes and digests the art, not as a computer program might with cold ones and zeros, but through the filter of their memories, experiences, and opinions formed over many years or seconds before their eyes reach the canvas.
Over the past few years, I’ve inadvertently created a collection of artworks that has fondly become my America First Series. It’s a small series of epic paintings of America’s Sports Car and American iron – aka Haley-Davidson and Indian motorcycle. Several of my America First creations include an American flag as part of the prevailing theme.
Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting the NATIONAL CORVETTE MUSEUM, so lately the big questions I get asked are “What is it like?” and “What did I like most about the museum?”
Myself, 14 other artists, 60+ paintings intermingled with these beautiful cars will be set up and on display through the end of the year. Come on down to the National Corvette Museum. The exhibit is now upon. It’s an awesome show, so come down and check it out.
The LUSTER Exhibit at the National Corvette Museum has been extended beyond its original December 31st closing date to Sunday, January 05, 2025.
The NATIONAL CORVETTE MUSEUM shared some fantastic pictures of their new gallery, which showcases the LUSTER exhibit, and I could not resist sharing them with you. Beautifully shot just before the gala and exhibit premier, these pictures celebrate the beautiful art and cars adoring the museum through 2024.
