Mooney in the Jukebox

The Main St Jukebox* in Stroudsburg, PA held an opening Reception on Saturday June 6th featuring the work of Joe Mooney*. The work showed a variety of subjects ranging from household pets to some unique renderings of some very famous people. These renderings not only depicted the images of the individual but also the memories these personages continue to inspire.

Joe Mooney* has a way to bring such reflections into being through his use of color which also serves to emphasize certain characteristics of his subjects. His use of color also seems to have a similar effect on his non famous subjects such as the cats portrayed in some of the work shown at The Jukebox*. I’m not particularly inclined to own a pet, but their depictions do give me a better understanding of why many do. Music for the opening was provided by DJ B-Gaffe. The Exhibition continues until June 30th.
