THE MONTCLAIR / PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON CONNECTION
It ’ s not every day that your artwork is displayed in the offices ofaformer president — never mind multiple pieces . But Montclair resident LIZ MURPHY can lay claim to that distinction . Three of her works , which she describes as “ muted and subtle ,” hang in President Bill Clinton ’ s Harlem offices . Murphy , aMontclairbased abstract artist , designer and children ’ sbook illustrator with astudio in East Orange , was selected to showcase her work by Heather Carter of Carter Fine Art Services . Carter has placed several of Murphy ’ s pieces with collectors , and sources and curates art for the former president .
On the day Murphy had the opportunity to pose for this photo with President Clinton , she says , she received acall asking her to come to his offices . “ I ’ d just gotten back from the gym , and Iwas asweaty mess ,” she says . Murphy quickly changed and found her way to Harlem , where she met with the collector himself — aswell as his Secret Service detail — for 50 minutes . “ He briefly commented on how he likes my art and its placement in the foyer ,” says Murphy . “ He kept saying ‘ Let me tell you astory ,’ and he told alot of them , both political and personal .” Helen Robinson , the director of administration at the Clinton Foundation and curator of his artwork , mentioned the many high-profile individuals who have been received at the office , including Nelson Mandela .
Murphy ’ s art may be seen at the Prominent Properties Sotheby ’ s International Realty gallery , 32 Valley Road in Montclair . An opening night event will be held from 5-8 p . m . May 11 ; her artwork will be on display for three weeks thereafter .
