{"product_id":"9791387960131","title":"Jasper Johns: Night Driver","description":"\u003cb\u003eAuthor: Enrique Juncosa\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume provides a sweeping overview of American artist Jasper Johns’ (born 1930) life and work. A giant of postwar art, Johns’ analytical and self-reflexive work contributed to the development of Pop art, Minimalism and Conceptual art. He is best known for depicting quotidian symbols in a variety of mediums, including oil, ink, pencil, collage and relief. Indeed, Johns’ oeuvre attests to his tireless experiments with representation and mark-making.This volume traces the artist’s production across seven decades, highlighting key motifs realized through paintings, drawings and prints. From his iconic flag, target, number and map paintings of the 1950s; to his abstract crosshatch design and art historical citations of the ’70s and ’80s; to his complex, layered late works, which often build upon previous themes. Titled after a 1960 charcoal, pastel and collage drawing on paper, Night Driver guides readers through the artist’s recursive, yet ever-evolving corpus. The monograph opens with three illustrated essays on Johns—one of which is penned by Irish novelist Colm Tóibín—and concludes with a conversation between Johns and painter Terry Winters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9791387960131.
