Johnson is a Chicago-based artist and designer whose unique neo-classical works bridge the past with the future. In this body of work, Johnson reimagines classical compositions from the Baroque and Rococo periods, infusing them with a modern sensibility that both disrupts and communicates with historical aesthetics.
Each piece in this show begins with an existing painting from art history, which Johnson then ‘breaks’ by introducing rebellious, contemporary elements. The result is a provocative exploration of time, challenging viewers to reconsider the boundaries between eras.
This show will open in our middle gallery alongside of two other solo presentations by Ekaterina Popova (@katerinaspopova) & Caitlyn Doran (@caitlyncold) … three shows are opening on Friday, June 7 from 6-10pm.
