Artist Jason Oliva Blurs Line Between Precious Originals and Authentic Remakes
Other Luxury Goods
March 27th, 2012
New York, NY, USA – Reported by Elite Traveler, the private jet lifestyle magazine
In the world of art, originals are superlatively precious, but the reproductions in Jason Oliva’s [Works on Paper] show challenges the definition of the cherished authentic.
For the exhibit, Oliva trades in the typical printers for the same paints used in the canvas masterpieces—and repaints each paper artwork by hand. This means that not only are the reproductions as vibrant as the original, they’re also a real-life manifestation of the same creative energy that engendered the paintings. And just like the real thing, the paper editions are dressed with the ever-valuable artist’s signature.
The artist likens his reproductions to traditional limited edition prints, but with more individuality and personal character. They then become as precious as the originals, in the sense that they are also one-of-a-kind. “Because each of these works are hand-painted, not one work is the same,” Oliva said.
These prints will be showcased at Downtown John Allans in New York City, alongside a selection of the Jason Oliva [Jewelry] and Jason Oliva [Sculpture] collections. To celebrate the show, the artist will be hosting a party at the club on March 28 at 7:30pm.
Please Join me on Thursday March 29th at 7:30 to celebrate the opening of my latest show: Jason Oliva [Works on Paper]

Hello Everyone!
Hope you are all doing well. I just wanted to get a quick message out to everyone to save the date Thursday March 29th (7:30).
I am having a party to celebrate my [Works on Paper] show at Downtown John Allans. I know many of you you have attended art shows I have had at John Allans in the past so it will be fun to go all the way back to where it started!(in the year 2000)
I am really proud of my new works on paper and how well they are being received. Alongside these works, I am hoping to have some jewellery and sculpture on display, coupled with a surprise large scale oil painting, all of which will be available for purchase.

I am really please to see the first of the Statues of Liberty to head out the door to there new owners apartment. All three are hand signed and numbered 1/50 and will remain together…which is cool. These three are based on three panels of my ‘Art History’ painting. Yellow is Pop Art, the Red is Russian Pop art and the Green is the last panel of the painting and represents…well i guess t represents me.
I am currently hanging the current collection of works on paper at John Allans in NYC. It will be the first time (in such a short time of their existence) that all the current works on paper will be shown together. I will keep everyone informed as to when the big party will be…I hope to see you all there.
