Richard Jackson (Booklet)

Sale price$22.00

If Richard Jackson is not a painter it is only because, as with many artists of his generation, his work cannot be defined by medium alone. Nevertheless, he is certainly one of the most significant and underappreciated artists in contemporary painting. To question whether he is a painter, or what kind of painter he is, is off-point. It is what he does with painting in his work that matters.' – The Paintings of Richard Jackson by Julien Bismuth

The Artist

RICHARD JACKSON

A pre-eminent figure in American contemporary art since the 1970s, Richard Jackson is influenced by both Abstract Expressionism and action painting, exploring a performative painting process which seeks to extend the potential of painting by upending its technical conventions. Born in Sacramento, California in 1939, Jackson first came to international attention with a major presentation of his installation works at the Menil Collection, Houston, in 1988, followed by the 1992 exhibition, ‘Helter Skelter,’ at the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art.
