Forest Hall Studios in Milford unveils a captivating art exhibition featuring renowned artists and curated by Christopher Makos and Paul Solberg.

Forest Hall Studios at historic Forest Hall in Milford has exciting news to share as it announces the curators for its upcoming art exhibition showcase. Christopher Makos and Paul Solberg, known as the "Hilton Brothers," will be showcasing their artworks in this picturesque town they have grown fond of.

As preparations are underway, interior updates and renovations are being carried out to welcome the return of "Andy in Nature" and the unveiling of works by Hunt Slonem, Bruce Denhert, and Vincent Caruso.

Christopher Makos, acclaimed as "the most modern photographer in America" by Andy Warhol, is renowned for his portraits capturing the cultural icons of the '70s and '80s, including Warhol himself. Paul Solberg, on the other hand, is celebrated for his extraordinary military "Service" portraits and monumental flower portraits that evoke a sense of nostalgia while remaining fresh and captivating. Both artists, based in Manhattan, have individually and collaboratively exhibited their works in museums and international institutions.

The curatorial plans of Makos and Solberg include the following exhibitions:

1. "Andy in Nature" by Christopher Makos + Paul Solberg:
Running from July 8 to September 3, 2023, "Andy in Nature" offers a unique glimpse into the works of both artists. Makos presents his photographs of Warhol captured in various outdoor settings, such as Colorado, seaside New England, and Montauk. Contrasting with Makos' pieces are Solberg's vibrant and larger-than-life flower portraits, paying homage to Warhol's iconic flower works. Forest Hall Studios invites fans of the legendary pop art icon to experience this exhibition, conveniently located less than two hours away from New York City. Andy in Nature merchandise will also be available for purchase.

2. "Wildlife" by Hunt Slonem:
