Robert Moskowitz "New Paintings"
D'Amelio Gallery
This event has ended.
Moskowitz is widely known as a prominent figure in the New Image Painters, a group of artists named after the 1978 Whitney exhibition that marked a return to an overt figurative style in painting after the conceptual periods of Minimalism, performance and installation.
In this exhibition of new, never before seen paintings by New York artist Robert Moskowitz, his latest subjects further implicate the commonplace and the extraordinary. Black and white paintings find form in a gin bottle, a baseball bat and an eagle’s wing. The eagle and the rearing horse escape the greater picture plane while the baseball bat leans back into the shallow depth of field. A symmetrical gateway of leafless trees, distant horizons and other abstract shapes ambiguously lead the viewer into or perhaps out of a new graphic language of ‘natural’ Americana.
