YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDiscover how Jasper Johns changed the course of modern art; before Pop Art even had a name.
In this HENI Talk, world-renowned art critic and curator Robert Storr unpacks the groundbreaking work of American painter Jasper Johns (b. 1930), whose iconic flags, targets, and maps transformed everyday symbols into profound statements about perception and meaning.
Johns’s bold use of encaustic painting and his association with the Neo-Dada movement marked a turning point in post-war American art - bridging the gap between Abstract Expressionism and the rise of Pop Art.
Drawing on his decades-long friendship with the artist, Storr offers a rare, insider’s view of Johns’s creative process and lasting influence on generations of artists.
Discover the artist who redefined what a painting could be.
