Paint the Town gets a behind-the-scenes tour of Dutch Artist Joseph Klibansky’s impressive Studio and Bronze Foundry, and hears the history behind Joseph’s now-iconic giant 60 foot “Leap of Faith” Sculpture! 

Paint the Town’s host Avery Andon and Joseph share their experiences working closely with family, and Joseph reveals that his brother, both his parents and even his sister-in-law are all actively involved in running his studio and the business surrounding his art! 

Joseph Klibansky is a Dutch artist best known for his large mixed media paintings of surreal cityscapes. His work often depicts a space in which utopia and dystopia coexist, painting scenes of violence and terror in soft, pastel colors. For example, in his painting Garden of Evolution (2012), he depicts a crumbling Times Square surrounded by colorful butterflies—a symbol of calm in the face of chaos. Also interested in the changing nature of the modern world, Klibansky’s work addresses themes related to communication.
