Summary
  • "Jasper Johns (b. 1930) is arguably the most influential artist living today. Over the past 65 years, he has produced a radical and varied body of work marked by constant reinvention. Inspired by the artist's long-standing fascination with mirroring and doubles, this book (published to accompany "mirroring" exhibitions held simultaneously at the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Philadelphia Museum of Art) provides an original perspective on Johns's work and its continued relevance. A diverse group of curators, academics, artists, and writers offer a series of essays-including many paired texts-that consider aspects of the artist's work such as recurring motifs, explorations of place, and use of a wide array of media. The various themes are further explored in a series of plate sections that combine prints, drawings, paintings, and sculptures to draw new connections in Johns's vast output"--
  • "This lavishly illustrated retrospective of Jasper Johns's work offers a new perspective on the artist's work based on his own enduring fascination with mirroring and doubles"--
