About the Item

The often colorful, dense and wildly ambitious paintings of Michael Krasowitz are inspired by the exercises of the surrealists, deconstructing myth to express archetypal ideas in visual imagery. The paintings can read as classical cubism, contemporary pop-art figuration, or a lively combination of both. Michael created his own visual language, a variation of Asemic writing, which became the basis for his early imagery. Abstract variations of eastern characters can be seen in these pieces. Spontaneous or automatic drawing is an essential element in his work. He employs techniques that he calls "Trompe L'Esperit", or fool the mind, in order to subvert the conscious mind and create art which transcends the individual intent. His painting technique is rooted in the craft of painting, using under painting and glazing, to create three dimensional forms.
