New York's Forum Gallery will present an exhibition of eminent photorealistic painter Davis Cone.

Cone's subjects are eye-catching Art Deco movie theaters located on present-day main streets across America. These theaters, with their bold shapes and rich colors, have been Cone's sole subjects since he began his career as an artist in the 1970's.
