Wentworth Gallery/ Paul Stanley
When the gallery first approached us about adding some pr to the legendary KISS front man's art tour, the conversations went a little something like this:
Wentworth Gallery (WG): "Baby, don't you let me down."
Markowitz Communications (MC): "You gotta get all you can take." After generating quite a bit of media interest in several markets, we had another talk with our client.
WG: "Gimme more!"
MC: "We're gonna rise to it, you know we really can do it."

Wentworth Gallery/ Grace Slick
Don't you want some bunnies to love? Back in 1989, former lead singer of Jefferson Airplane Grace Slick put down her microphone and picked up a paintbrush. Nowadays, her muse includes fellow rock luminaries like Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Pete Townshend and Sting, as well as Alice in Wonderland drawings. Yes, the infamous White Rabbit lives on canvas.

To that end, stories have appeared in North Hills Monthly Magazine, Butler Eagle and the McKeesport Daily News.

When Cricket teamed up with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Motorola and Super Bowl MVP Hines Ward to give Pittsburghers another ring to be proud of, Markowitz led the cheer. As a result, the official Hines Ward MotoRAZR™ V3a made the news.
