In 1966, Barbara Starr Schreckengaust and her son William Ris Schreckengaust opened the Gallery and Academy of Art. Their collaboration, love and knowledge of the arts was the foundation for the continued success of the gallery. In 1971, the gallery opened its second location in Stone Harbor, New Jersey. The gallery’s stable of artists, while still growing, has a dedicated following that is renowned and recognized nationally. Today, the gallery is owned by Mary Cantone who remains devoted to the memory of Bill, Barbara’s high standards and the success and growth of the gallery. In keeping with their collective shared vision, Mary recently opened William Ris East in Jamesport, New York on Long Island’s North Shore to continue the traditions of William Ris Gallery. Mary’s career in designing interiors and space planning has included collaborating with artists and encouraging clients to enhance, with passion, the fine arts. A bonus to Cantone’s innate and nurtured abilities is her keen sensibilities for mixing mediums, styles and colors.  Anahi DeCanio now represented by William Ris Gallery - Abstract Women Exhibtion

Ms. Horowitz is currently, a curator/director of “Studio 5404,” an artists’ space, a non-profit cultural arts organization on the South Nassau /Suffolk border. Her current series, “Burned into Memory”, is a study of personalities and environments. Sculptural images digest the posture of individuals while faces reflect their stories. In her process, “Painting with Fire”, images are burned into copper screening creating haunting shadows, translucent images and reflective imagery. Kelynn Z.

Olga has exhibited widely in group and solo shows including a recent exhibit at the Consulate General of Uruguay in New York City. Neil Leinwohl: In 1966 I left a Fine Arts Scholarship at the School Of Visual Arts and enlisted in the Army to be a photographer. Five months later I found myself in Vietnam armed with a Leica M3 and a couple of Nikons. I create art on the computer, narratives built with photographs and graphics I’ve manipulated. I also work with acrylics and oil paint sticks. Since 1970, I’ve worked in advertising, as a writer, art director and creative director. I now work on my art full-time..My art is about personal mythology, both real and conjured and the unreliable nature of memory. I create art on the computer, narratives built with photographs and graphics I’ve manipulated. Aurelio Torres: Born in Montevideo, Uruguay to a family of artists, Aurelio was raised in New York City. His father, Horacio Torres, was an accomplished classically trained artist. His artistic training was in Barcelona, Spain, where he studied for several years with his uncle Augusto Torres. Aurelio’s grandfather, was the acclaimed Modernist Master Joaquin Torres-Garcia. Aurelio’s travels have inspired him to create much of his work in natural outdoor settings. His aesthetic sensibility is one of essential simplicity and natural, uncontrived beauty.
