Joseph Reboli Art for Sale and Sold Prices

b. 1945 - d. 2004

Joseph Reboli (September 25, 1945 – June 4, 2004) was an American painter based in Stony Brook, New York, known primarily for his oil paintings of local landscapes and subjects from the Three Village area and the East End of Long Island.

Joseph Reboli was born in Port Jefferson, New York, and began painting in his childhood.[1] As early as junior high school, his aunt, Anna Reboli, would arrange for his art to be shown at the bank in Stony Brook where she worked, and quietly bought everything.[2]

He attended the Paier School of Art in New Haven, Connecticut from 1964 to 1967, where he was instructed by American realist Ken Davies.[1] After graduation, he enlisted in the U.S. Army and was assigned to the Army Exhibit Unit in Alexandria, Virginia, until his release in 1969.[1]

Reboli had his first solo exhibition in 1971 at Gallery North in Setauket.[3] In 1977, he met George Henoch Shechtman, owner of the Christopher Gallery on Madison Avenue in Manhattan, where Reboli's work would come to be exhibited regularly.[4] Through the 1980s and '90s Shechtman continued to represent Reboli at Gallery Henoch in SoHo.[5][6] Into the 2000s, Reboli continued to hold solo exhibits at Gallery North, the first gallery to show his work; and inspired the Joseph Reboli Wet Paint Festival, a plein air painting event held by the not-for-profit gallery annually.[7] Overall, his work has been the subject of five museum exhibitions, over 20 solo exhibitions, and numerous group shows, as well as collected by both private collectors throughout America and Europe and corporate clients.[6]
