Real Estate Developer Aby Rosen Hosts Art Soiree, Showcases 100 East 53rd Street

Acclaimed real estate developer and avid art collector, Aby Rosen melded his two passions with a celebrity-studded unveiling of a specially commissioned artwork for his latest modernist tower, 100 East 53^rd Street.

The piece, titled Panorama of New York and gracing the building’s lobby, reveals the creative aesthetic of celebrated artist, Rachel Feinstein. Blending key New York City landmarks, the canvas exhibits a somewhat gloomy yet undeniably imposing character, awash in gray and sepia tones.

“The work is a fantastical dreamscape of the city, and a beautiful gift to our future residents,” 100 East 53^rd Street Instagram page reads.
