“Jasper Johns is the world’s most critically acclaimed living artist. His work bridges the immediate post-World War II modernist trends of Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism with subsequent movements of the 1960s, including Pop art, Minimalism, and Conceptual art. While his reputation is international, Johns has deep roots in South Carolina. Born in 1930, he grew up in Allendale, the Columbia area, and Sumter; he attended the University of South Carolina for three semesters before moving to New York to pursue his career in art. |
