Robert Moskowitz — Flatiron
Robert Moskowitz

Flatiron

2000

A monumental yet minimalist depiction of New York City's iconic Flatiron Building, rendered in pastel on paper with Moskowitz's signature reductive approach. The triangular form of the historic skyscraper emerges from a spare, atmospheric ground, stripped of extraneous detail to emphasize its bold, geometric silhouette. The soft, chalky quality of the pastel medium lends the image a quiet intensity, balancing architectural grandeur with an almost meditative stillness.
