Rais. 0 to 9, 1960 About the artist Born in 1930 Jasper Johns moved to New York in 1949 and began with paintings influenced by abstract expressionism. In the mid-1950s he met Robert Rauschenberg, John Cage and Merce Cunningham, and his work changed radically. The first of many solo exhibitions at the Leo Castelli Gallery (1958) led to his inclusion in the Museum of Modern Art's seminal exhibition "16 Americans" the following year. Solo exhibitions of his paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures were organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art (1977), the National Gallery of Art (1990) and the Museum of Modern Art (1986, 1996). Jasper Johns forms an important bridge between abstract expressionism and pop and minimal art. Printmaking has long been an important part of the artist's creative process. He first worked at the ULAE in 1960. Initially, lithography was close to Johns' heart and enabled him to create print versions of iconic representations of flags, maps and targets that filled his paintings, such as Target, 1960. In 1967, Johns expanded his repertoire to include etching, creating Target I and Light Bulb. In 1971, Johns was the first artist at ULAE to use the hand-operated offset press. The result was Decoy - an image realized in printmaking before it was created as a drawing or painting. Since then, Johns has become a master of both mediums and continues to produce prints with subjects as diverse as the seasons, creative reinterpretations of Holbein, and curious faces and facial features combined with everyday objects.
