Alexander Newley Biography

Alexander Newley is one of the most popular and richest Painter who was born on September 8, 1965 in New York City, New York City, United Kingdom. Alexander Newley (born 8 September 1965 in New York City, New York), also known as Sacha Newley, is a British contemporary artist, portraitist, writer and teacher known for his paintings of major figures in the Arts, including Gore Vidal, Billy Wilder, Christopher Reeve, Oliver Stone and Steven Berkoff. His portraits of Vidal and Reeve form part of the permanent collection of The National Portrait Gallery at The Smithsonian in Washington DC. Also known as Sacha Newley, he is the only son of Dame Joan Collins, one of two children from her second marriage, to actor Anthony Newley; the other child being singer Tara Newley.

He has captured on canvas some of the most iconic figures of stage and screen including Sir David Suchet, whose portrait was revealed at The Garrick Club in October 2016, and now hangs in the most esteemed spot in the Garrick bar.

In 2017 Newley completed his memoir ‘Unaccompanied Minor’, illustrated with 28 of his own paintings, an account of growing up within a famous but dysfunctional family as the son of two stars of Hollywood’s golden age.

His multilayered “Head of Lincoln” is the central feature at The Lincoln Heritage Museum in Springfield, Illinois—the home of Lincoln studies. Newley also painted a portrait of Lord Jeffrey Archer, mischievously hiding his face behind his hands.
