In honor of International Jazz Day – what better than
‘Just Jazz’,artist Moe Brooker’s hand painted 28 laminated glass panel artwork at the
LIRR Wyandanch station’s parking structure. The expressive brush strokes add a
vibrancy that is an exciting counterpoint to the tower’s geometric
architecture. At five stories tall, the colorful work is an inviting and
welcoming beacon particularly when illuminated at night. The artwork
reflects the jazz inspired rhythms and movement that Brooker cites as
influencing his free flowing work. Jazz is part of the community’s
history as well, and with many musicians making their homes here,including jazz
legend, John Coltrane, or one town over,in Dix Hills. Brooker’s
summary work has passages that evoke exuberance as well as reflection and is a
fitting tribute to the music it honors.
