SENTINELS Brooks Burns Acrylic on canvas 16.5 x 20.5 inches 2025 About Brooks Burns: Brooks Burns creates hard-edge abstract paintings that exist in dynamic tension between Minimalism and Maximalism. His geometric compositions reference minimalist traditions through their crisp forms and deliberate structures, yet his bold, vibrant palette allows the work to flourish equally in maximalist environments. A graduate of The College of Charleston where he studied Studio Art and Art History with a focus on painting and printmaking, Burns moved to New York in 2009, where the city's endless interplay of form, texture, and color continues to fuel his creative vision. Making his debut at MAISON 10, Burns presents work that honors the past while speaking confidently to the future. Burns has built his practice through collaboration with leading designers, art consultants, and collectors, creating bespoke paintings for both residential and commercial settings. His work enhances luxury interiors by acclaimed designers including Ashe Leandro and Kelly Hurliman, and has been installed in five Kimpton Hotel properties. Recent exhibitions include the Dixon Museum (2023) and New York's iconic Bergdorf Goodman (2024). Burns develops detailed renderings for clients before beginning each full-scale painting, ensuring that every piece serves as a carefully considered focal point tailored to elevate its specific environment.
