About The Artist

Marjorie and Bob Moskowitz created a new persona, (MB Mosk) when they began collaborating, separate from their individual studio practices. These works are a curious hybrid only slightly resembling their own work. The process attempts to create a seamless blending to appear as a single artist has produced the painting. They draw on their shared approach to looking at the peculiar nature of people and the world. Their sense of irony and humor is a vehicle to allude to a deeper meaning below the surface.

Our collaborations draw on humor and irony to allude a deeper meaning. The message comes to the viewer indirectly so as not to bludgeon people with images that are shocking causing aversion. Everyone hates the inconvenience of heavy traffic commonplace in all cities. The depiction of a traffic jam on a Los Angeles highway with cows navigating through the road and a lime green Tesla beginning to launch will evoke laughter and then invite consideration of the carbon footprint of a bloated interstate. We also look at where people love to gather and what they eat.
