Marco Mazzoni and Joseph Park at Roq la Rue Opening Night Photos

In the first show of the fall season at Roq la Rue, great things are afoot in Joseph Park and Marco Mazzoni’s (HF Vol. 20 cover artist) two-person exhibition which opened last Friday. The fifteen pieces in Marco Mazzoni’s “River of Milk” exhibition expands on the artist’s repertoire by exploring three different subject matters. “The Pathetics” pieces are a continuation of what we normally would expect from Mazzoni’s colored pencil masterpieces. Colorful flora and winged animals cover a female face with just enough exposed to elicit an emotional response from the viewer. “Muses” examines a similar subject matter, using women from fiction and mythology like Ophelia and Medusa. The final works, titled “The Encyclopedia of Impossible Animals”, is somewhat different than the others. Penciled on moleskin, the pieces look like they could have been torn from Charles Darwin’s sketch book as he explored the islands of another world where the normal laws of nature didn’t apply.
