Don’t Miss Painter William Quigley’s New Works And Special “Avengers” Masterpiece At Keyes Art In Sag Harbor

T.J. ClementebyT.J. Clemente

A conversation with William Quigley is almost as exciting as gazing at the scope, range and imagination that one sees when looking at his paintings. One is not sure what to say, or think, but there is no doubt if you check out his collection, you will see that you are looking at something special, something powerful, something you just cannot stop looking at. His talent goes straight into the corners of one’s mind and rattles things. It is no wonder many of the greatest contemporary collectors have privately commissioned and paid Quigley seven-figure sums for commissioned paintings.

Quigley has a broad electric intellectual mind, well trained by Ivy League schooling – with a European finishing touch by studying in Rome at the Tyler School of Art. He has traveled the world. However, his gift to create cannot be taught, it is one that just erupts and then is.

His work has been on exhibit at Julie Keyes’ Keyes Art in Sag Harbor, who while presenting an exhibition of Quigley’s work proclaimed, “Abstraction is one thing, passion is another. Artist William Quigley exhibits both in every single painting he does, and he does both of them perfectly. It is very rare to find an artist that can master both sides of the fence this well. We are proud to have the opportunity to exhibit this body of work. As in the sea of abstraction in New York and the Hamptons, he does and always will stand out.” The presentation of Quigley’s art ends Friday, October 23.

The artist proudly noted that he has “painted three presidents, including the controversial painting of Donald Trump” and many superstar personalities, along with sports stars. He emphasized he is perhaps the artist that “has sold the most million dollar paintings who is not that well-known.” He relayed, “My best works are owned by very private collectors who have no intention of reselling my work at an auction house.”

The data backs him up. It is reported that he has sold portraits of influential figures such as former President Bill Clinton, former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, athletes Shaquille O’Neal, Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan, Eminem, Audrey Hepburn, Woody Allen, Chris Kyle, Christy Turlington, and more. His most prominent works can be found in the collections of more than 700 influential collectors.

Quigley has a love for the East End, the Hamptons, and its people. He knew Andy Warhol and Willem de Kooning, and even did a show at Warhol’s gallery. “I was young then, I met Andy in Montauk, too,” he shared.

The truth is he is a personality and a painter, he is a thinker and a creator, he has a voice that comes to life with his use of color, his composition of subject and lastly, his vision of what he sees and how he sees it. I suggest you make a point of getting to Keyes Art before his show ends. Call ahead to insure you meet this most interesting and successful artist.

Quigley stressed that this show is dedicated to raising awareness for Captain Braveheart Aaron Hunter and ROHHAD disease.

In 2018, actor Chris Evans commissioned Quigley to create a surprise Avengers painting for his co-star and friend, Robert Downey Jr., who showcased the artwork at a 2019 premiere of Avengers: Endgame. Watch Downey highlight the piece here.

Quigley was extremely touched by the kind gesture, but what really hit home was discovering a video of Downey Jr.’s friend, a young boy named Aaron Hunter stricken with ROHHAD disease. In 2017, the Iron Man star visited the Hunter’s home in England, answering Aaron’s dream, and knighting him Captain Braveheart. The touching story led to the creation of a second Avengers painting honoring Aaron, his family, mother Lisa, and all the families committed to helping others raise awareness and finding a cure for ROHHAD Syndrome. The extremely rare, life- threatening condition severely impacts quality of life, resulting in a daily fight for survival. To find out more about ROHHAD Syndrome and Aaron’s story, visit www.rohhadassociation.com.

Quigley requests that all support and spread awareness for Aaron’s wishes to fight ROHHAD by posting and tagging #GoMadJumpforRohhad.

The special painting of Avenger Captain Braveheart Aaron Hunter will be featured Saturday, October 10 through Friday, October 23.

Keyes Art is located at 45 Main Street in Sag Harbor. For more information, visit www.juliekeyesart.com.

  • From Garden to Plate: Hunter Mangano’s Journey at Shou Sugi Ban House

At Shou Sugi Ban House in Water Mill, you are immersed in the Japanese philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, or the art of impermanence. Known for its spa, nutrition, and lodging facilities, Shou Sugi Ban House was designed by New York and Hamptons architect Debbie Kropf, who artfully chose to infuse elements of the local Hamptons landscape with Japanese principals similar to that of the “ryokan” or a traditional Japanese inn. Aside from its serene and upscale spa services, Shou Sugi Ban House is set apart by its on-property greenhouse, gardens, berry patch, and orchard, all of which are used to make meals for guests of SSBH. @shousugibanhouse

  • The Best Coffee Shops in the Hamptons For a Perfect Brew

For coffee lovers, there’s nothing quite like heading into a local coffee joint, taking solace in the fact that it’s not an international chain. Quaint vibes alongside java that is brewed fresh and local is an experience that simply can’t be replicated at places like Starbucks, Panera, and Dunkin’. Not to say quality coffee can’t be found at these establishments, of course, there is a reason they are the most famous coffee chains in the world after all. But, in the Hamptons, it has always been about small-town charm and chain-everything being few and far between, from stores to restaurants to cafes and beyond.

So, whether you’re a Hamptons local, a vacationer on the East End, or are simply looking for the best local coffee spots in the area, we have a list of 10 must-try coffee shops for you.

  • A Glimpse Inside…East Hampton’s Most Talked About New Construction, Now Complete

Just completed in August 2023, 6 Marley Lane has quickly become one of the Hamptons’ most talked about new constructions. Exclusively represented by The Vince Horcasitas Team at Saunders & Associates, to say they are excited about this rare new construction is an understatement.

Since its inception and throughout construction, the Hamptons real estate community has eagerly anticipated its completion. What has emerged at 6 Marley Lane is—almost impossibly—even more impressive in real life than in renderings.  @hamptonsrealestate @vinceinthehamptons

  • The History Behind The Two Most Prestigious Golf Courses in The Hamptons

With more than 140 golf courses across Long Island’s 118 Miles, the Hamptons is home to 15 of those courses two of which rank numbers 4 and 7 in the top 100 Golf Courses in the world. They say Long Island’s water makes for the best bagels, so it must be something in this soil that makes these famous greens.

  • Iconic Marders, More Than a Nursery

“Marders” is the high essence of a Hamptons Nursery and so much more. It is the epitome of success, situated on 40 acres of prime Bridgehampton real estate. Charlie Marder of 120 Snake Hollow Road, along with his wife Kathleen have built a monument that has been providing their expertise and services to the residents of the Hamptons for about fifty years.

The stories are now folklore. Back in the day, usually wearing his trademark suspenders, Charlie was ever ready to move the largest trees of the Hamptons whether they were to be planted, relocated, or removed. He once boasted to this reporter that he had the record for the widest load moved by the Shelter Island South Ferry. Charlie said he deposited a tree onto the ferry on one side and fetched it off the ferry on the other side, recalling, “The tree was wider than the ferry, sticking out on both sides.” @marderslandscaping
