Matthew Marks is pleased to announce Jasper Johns: Drawings 1982–2021, the next exhibition in his gallery at 523 West 24th Street. The exhibition includes twenty-five drawings in a wide variety of media, many of which have rarely or never been exhibited.
About
Spanning the last forty years of Johns’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 exhibition will be accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue featuring a new essay by Hilton Als.
Jasper Johns: Drawings 1982–2021 is on view at 523 West 24th Street from September 13 to October 26, 2024, Tuesday through Saturday, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
