Talk | Jasper Johns: Mr. Johns Regrets
Alicia Longwell on Jasper Johns
June 23, 2022, 12 pm - 1 pm
REGISTER
In the Lichtenstein Theater
Conversation 2/3 of a lunchtime talk series by Alicia Longwell on Jasper Johns
In a series of three informal lunchtime talks in conjunction with the exhibition, An Art of Changes: Jasper Johns Prints, 1960–2018, Alicia G. Longwell, Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Chief Curator will discuss Jasper Johns and three common themes explored by the artist throughout his career.
This talk focuses on Johns’s penchant for repetition of specific imagery and his well-known reticence for art world hubbub. In the Regrets series, the image is doubled and abstracted to the extent that the resulting shapes—rather than the figure—become the focus. In the upper right, Johns “signed” each work with an enlarged image of the rubber stamp he uses to decline invitations: “Regrets/Jasper Johns.”
Guests are invited to preorder lunch through the Café at the Parrish and enjoy it in the Theater. Special Offer: Receive a free regular coffee with any Café purchase or receive a free bag of chips with the purchase of a salad or sandwich. Outside food is not permitted in the Museum.
