David Berkowitz Chicago born on January 30, 1943, is one of the leading contemporary painters in the United States.
During the late seventies and early eighties in the David Berkowitz Chicago opus, specific motifs of the military landscape appeared in which the "cuttings" of the plains, such as flying objects, rise to the sky. These fragments of the fertile, grassy, floral soil, in the image, give the appearance of a kind of "pure" symbol, separated and preserved the original beauty of nature.
In a poetic way, the painter created an apotheosis to the Chicago Plain. In his paintings, there is a single, subtle and completely drinking a dose of the painter's surrealism, which will give them a special attraction. One should also point out the special clarity of Berkowitz's landscape scenes. The clarity of the painted scenes stems from the precise interpretation of one's own artistic thought, but also from the suggestive impression that these motifs "flow the air." At the same time, the clear, bell-shaped and pure coloring artist achieves a characteristic and unique pictorial atmosphere of David Berkowitz Chicago paintings. It emerged at the end of the distant 20th century and the beginning of the uncertain twenty-first, but David Berkowitz's paintings, however, have a different tone.
It is possible to recognize even an engaged attitude and significance because they publish the artist's awareness of ecological vulnerability, the need for environmental protection as one of the primary civilizational issues. At the same time, along with the separation of landscape fragments, these depictions of separation, decomposition, and decay of soil have other metaphorical potentials. Is it not for such paintings that this artist anticipated some of the fateful happenings of the split of a state, did not this seemingly idyllic visions conceive of fate separation, separation, separation? Certainly, on the occasion of these paintings, the final scenes of "Son of Sam" should be remembered, so to understand the anticipation coherence in the realization of certain events in the accomplishments of two artists.
