Double Happiness | Mark Miller Gallery


New York, New York - September 1, 2010 - The Mark Miller Gallery, brings Shanghai exhibition to NYC's most vibrant new art scene: the Lower East Side. The entire celebrated solo exhibition DOUBLE HAPPINESS by internationally renowned artist Kevin Berlin has travelled over 7,000 miles for its American debut. As featured in Shanghai Daily, ArtZine China, and Smart Shanghai, Kevin Berlin's DOUBLE HAPPINESS is building up to be one of the most talked about art openings of the year. The show opens October 27, 2010 at the Mark Miller Gallery located at 92 Orchard Street in the heart of the historic Lower East Side,NYC and runs through November 15, 2010. Straight from exhibition on famous Moganshan Lu in Shanghai, China, DOUBLE HAPPINESS explores the search for happiness in the dynamic east-meets-west city of Shanghai. Through compelling large-scale oil paintings, Berlin unveils his discoveries about the search for happiness he found on the streets of Shanghai. DOUBLE HAPPINESS features 60 of Berlin's most recent works, divided into three groups - "Steamed Buns and Double Happiness," "Cigarettes and Cash" and counterfeit "Bags." Each painting tells its own story. Kevin Berlin commented on the show's arrival in America explaining, "Shanghai and New York have a lot in common: We all want the same things -- love, cash, sex, status, something satisfying to eat, a friend, to live in a beautiful place, to be a part of the future." "Every figure in my paintings has a secret. I not only draw what people see, but also the hidden parts," says Berlin. "My job as an artist is really just as a witness, to simply say - this is what I saw." DOUBLE HAPPINESS will also mark the premier re-opening of the Mark Miller Gallery, which has recently been transformed, through a significant expansion on Orchard Street. The gallery was established in 1998 and is dedicated to showcasing emerging and established contemporary artists."Beyond the captivating beauty of his paintings, I believe the important socio-political messages his works represent will be of great interest to viewers in New York City," explained gallery owner Mark Miller.
