Book Description
Fred Orton offers the clearest and most penetrating picture yet of the enigmatic American painter, Jasper Johns.
"Fred Orton writes on Jasper Johns with clarity as well as conviction. . . . If Orton engages you with the play of words and concepts, he is equally adept at drawing you close into Johns paintings. . . . With equal authority, Orton analyzes the critical distinction, as articulated by Johns himself, between the actual and the figured."Richard Shiff, ArtForum
"A significant contribution to the large body of literature about one of the more provocative and enigmatic artists of the mid- and late-20th-century."Michael J. Prokopow, Boston Book Review
Fred Orton is Senior Lecturer in History of Art, University of Leeds, U.K.
