| Summary: | "Spanning the last forty years of John's long career, the drawings in the exhibition feature many of the artist's well-known motifs, which draw from an extensive personal lexicon of symbols and images. In 1964, Johns encapsulated his approach to art making: 'Take an object. Do something to it. Do something else to it.' These motifs include autobiographical references, the American flag, patterns like the flagstone or harlequin print, and images taken from other artists such as John Cage, Picasso, de Kooning, and Rodin. The exhibiton will be accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue featuring a new essay by Hilton Als."--Gallery's website, accessed 10/04/2024. |
