Michael Iskowitz Paintings

American, b. 1970
Michael Iskowitz creates colorful, seemingly playful paintings that often belie more serious ideas. His process is somewhat spontaneous, fueled by a sense of exploration and discovery. “Once inspired by a subject,” he says, he extends it into a series, “never knowing how the next image will materialize.” Sometimes a particular object triggers a whole new direction and he runs with it. Other times, childhood memories provide a reservoir of material from which he draws inspiration. Iskowitz, who has a hearing impairment, began painting at the age of five with an art therapist at Jawonio, a special needs services organization in New City, NY. Jawonio continued to offer support and inspiration throughout his youth and into adulthood. He later took art classes at Cooper Union and studied under the artist Robert Glaisek in Nyack, NY. Iskowitz’s work has been featured in Esopus Magazine and he has participated in numerous exhibitions in and around Rockland County. He lives and works in Rockland County, NY.

Jason and Medea - Greek Mythological Couple Inspired Diptych of Love and Tragedy

By Richard Gibbons

Located in Chicago, IL

The Greek myth of Medea, the enchantress who helped Jason, leader of the Argonauts, obtain the magical Golden Fleece, is a classic story of betrayal and vengeance. Like many Greek myths, this one too has a tragic ending. She was of divine descent and had the gift of prophecy and married Jason. Theirs's was a passionate beginning but when Jason found another, Medea made the ultimate sacrifice by killing the children the two shared. Jason, Medea and the Golden Fleece is one of the oldest myths of a hero's quest. Gibbons portrays the hero as a bare-chested god with a halo of roses and gold. The Heroine is portrayed with a golden crown and an aura of golden rays surrounding her. His soft features and partially opened lips and her sultry gaze add to the sensuousness of their passionate love affair. The paintings are framed in a simple walnut wooden frames measuring 21.5 x 17.5 inches each. Richard Gibbons Jason and Medea...
