LARRY HOROWITZ: SEASONS IN LANDSCAPE
NOVEMBER - DECEMBER 2019 / New York
Art is what you don’t know. We’re all searching for the truth.

SEASONS IN LANDSCAPE
Although he paints en plein air, Larry Horowitz has a firm grounding in abstract expressionism and modernism through his education with Maxim Bugzester from the Bauhaus and Hans Hoffmann schools. He combines both points of view to develop his own unique visual language.
Horowitz has largely abandoned paintbrushes, preferring the depth and surface texture achieved with a palette knife, but he has been known to use a twig, beach charcoal, packing peanuts and many other unorthodox implements. Larry says he prefers landscape painting because “there are no rules; in order to get to the next level, you have to be willing to destroy what you have painted."
Larry has studios in upstate New York and on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, but he travels extensively throughout the United States, Canada and Europe in search of new vistas.
