"The Infinite Journey" is collaboration between poet and artist. In a chance conversation between them, the joining of their individual art forms was formed.
Through the Society of Illustrators in NYC, Charles Rowe was asked by the director of NASA Art, Robert Schulman, to participate in the NASA Art Program. Charles created three paintings for the US Air Force which hang in the Pentagon and also one painting for the NASA Magellan shuttle launch, "The Infinite Voyage", which you see here.
This is the painting that inspired Jim to pen "The Infinite Journey".
For James Manniso, poetry is the creation of words against the backdrop of the human heart. His words inspire us to look more deeply into what we sometimes take for granted. Jim has combined poetry and art in many diverse framed wall pieces: "The Fighting of Fire", "The Saga of the Titanic", "We are Second to None", "The Teacher and Student", "The Grand Canyon Epic", "The United States Marines", "The Legend of the Arabian Horse", and "Proudly We Served".
The art of Charles Rowe is in private, corporate, state and national collections in the United States, Canada and Europe. He has received numerous awards and grants and has been represented in 250 exhibitions nationally and internationally and is listed in Who's Who in American Art. |
