Robert Moskowitz (born 1935 in Brooklyn, New York) is a contemporary American painter who was influenced by, among other movements, Abstract Expressionism, and gained recognition in the 1960s onward for his paintings, drawings and prints that work in the intersection between Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism and Pop Art. He was influenced in his early career by such eminent artists as Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg. Although his work has been described as a "significant link between the Abstract Expressionism of the New York School and the 'New Image Abstraction' painters of the mid-1970s", Moskowitz has received relatively little public attention and never achieved the level of fame that many of his peers have.〔Rifkin, Ned. Robert Moskowitz. New York: Thames and Hudson. ISBN 0-500-09199-4.〕 == Early life == In 1948, Robert Moskowitz, son of Louis and Lily Moskowitz, was left to care for their youngest daughter, Karen, after his father left the family and his mother was forced to make occasional trips to Florida for work. He showed little artistic capability as a child, but enrolled after school at the Mechanics Institute of Manhattan to pursue engineering drafting. In 1956, he began studying at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn where he studied under Adolph Gottlieb. Moskowitz traveled to Europe in 1959, where he met the British collage and assemblage artist Gwyther Irwin. At Irwin's suggestion, Moskowitz moved into an artist's community outside London where he was able to purchase his first studio space for $85.00, which allowed him to remain in London for one year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Robert Moskowitz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
