Studio Szabries

Fred Szabries
About The Artist
The artwork of Szabries has always been distinguished by one common factor: his masterful use of unusual materials. Although accomplished at working on canvas and paper, he prefers media that pushes the limits of art to the edge and beyond. "Industrial" materials such as plexiglas and aluminum become, in the hands of this artist, things of uncommon beauty. This prolific, self taught artist has rapidly attracted a world-wide audience with his distinctive style. He started his career in art in 1992 and since then, he has been collected internationally and his work has been displayed in galleries all over the country including, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Hollywood, Atlanta, Orlando, Plantation, Key West, Sarasota and the Tampa Bay area. Two of his paintings were part of permanent set of CBS's Golden Palace and he has shown art with Mercedes Of North America. His work has been commissioned by the United States Air Force and can be found in numerous corporate art collections including the private collection of HBO comedian Dennis Miller.
Fred Szabries was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on October 12, 1964. He currently lives and works in St. Petersburg, Florida.
