About this artwork
MISSING is an odd title the artist chose for this piece because the central focal point is the Madonna and child. But what's missing is Betty Grable's head, She was the iconic pinup girl who inspired America to galvanize itself and defeat its enemies in WWII. Now, during this upheaval pandemic, there is no head to lead America only opaque glasses to peek the future.
The Betty Grable cutout and the Madonna image pasted on Hard Drive cover are mounted… on solid mahogany wood panel recovered from an old table. Gold leaf hallows Madonna.

« To me as an artist, art is an ongoing evolutionary process. The more you do, the more you are prone to make so-called “happy accidents.” The happy accidents are the evolutionary parts of art that tend to have a lasting connection and stand the test of time. »
Aleks Rosenberg is a multi-disciplinary artist and filmmaker who resides in the United States and has exhibited and sold his works internationally. He received his BFA from Pratt Institute and MFA from Yale University School of Art. The central themes found in his works relate to the 'outside looking in' and the 'sun will always come up tomorrow'. For Rosenberg, there has always been tension between darkness and light, and as such, his compositions seek to find a balance between the two extremes. Working through series, he uses contrasting found or repurposed materials to leave clues for stories to be told.
