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.\u003cbr\u003eThis 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, \u003ci\u003eNight Driver\u003c\/i\u003e 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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jasper Johns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9791387960131\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e La Fabrica\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Jasper Johns","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48801385840895,"sku":"9791387960131","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jasper-johns-jasper-johns-9791387960131","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
