Description:
|
'Field Painting' pivots references both to art-making and Johns’ own career. The primary colors red, yellow, and blue are spelled out in letters hinged perpendicularly to the canvas, where they also appear in stencil-like doubles. Attached to them are various studio tools. The Savarin coffee tin and Ballantine beer can both allude to Johns’ studio paraphernalia and to his appropriation of them as motifs in his work. Passages of smeared and dripped paint, a footprint, light switch, and a neon “R” in red collude with other visual codes to multiply the possibility of associations. The neon is illuminated when the work is displayed. (Source: National Gallery of Art [website]; http://www.nga.gov/)
