Tom Everhart Hosts Opening Of ‘Raw’ Black and White Exhibition

by Darius Stone March 6, 2016
written by Darius Stone

On Saturday February 27, The Mouche Gallery in Beverly Hills hosted an exhibition of exclusive pieces from the seasoned world renowned artist Tom Everhart. The event was a black and white attire shindig that showcased Everhart’s elaborate collection, as he’s the only artist authorized to paint Peanuts comic strip characters.

The pieces in the gallery ranged from $9,500 to $175,000 or even $300,000 for the most prized piece in Tom’s collection. The array of art spanned from 1998 to 2016 all which for the most part was exclusively made in black and white. Aside from the very dazzling art displayed in the space celebrities guest such as Diana Ross and son Evan Ross attended as well as basketball star/TV personality John Salley, along with pop singer Ashlee Simpson, comedic actor Donald Faison, Jessica and Eric Johnson, Odette and Dave Annable, Jenna Ushkowitz and Adam Rodriguez.

 

The night was catered by the exquisite champagne brand MORENO BHLV.

The Mouche Gallery will be hosting the exhibit till March 25th, where you can view all of Tom’s amazing pieces from over the years.

Are you excited for the event today?

TH: Pretty sweet, wouldn’t you say?

What are your favorite pieces?

TH: Probably the newest, which is the very first big wave in the front.

Why black and white?

TH: It goes back to how I start every work, which is in black and white … the relationship I had with Mr. Schulz was in Black and White, that’s how he discussed pictorial problems all the time … and they are rare because I don’t do them a lot, so these are just a few pieces that happened.

We liked “Super Fly.”

TH: It’s a flying toy piano … that piece probably took about a year. The inspiration was about flying above stuff that bothers, so I took the toy piano bent it’s legs back and made him fly.

The play brings together Greta (Golden Globe nominee Marilu Henner), a longtime ACLU donor on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, and Tanner (Emmy nominee Shannon Purser), the young representative sent to secure a substantial contribution. While initially united by progressive values, their conversation quickly exposes a widening generational and ideological rift.

Henner and Purser deliver performances that keep an ideological debate grounded in recognizable human emotion.
