Since the late 1970s, Jonathan Lasker has developed a distinctive formal vocabulary based on different mark-making processes, including structural grids, graphic scribbled lines and thick impasto strokes of paint. Although he creates these forms intuitively, the compositions themselves are highly structured and controlled. At the forefront of artists who re-established the possibilities of painting after Minimalism and Conceptualism emptied the picture-plane, he has mounted a challenge to the medium’s status quo, creating a unique system of painting based on a figure ground relationship, in which the figure and ground stand in a dialectical relationship to one another.
<br><br>
For this carpet, Lasker uses repeated, transposed forms to create an image composed of distinct, clearly defined elements. The viewer is encouraged to experience the image for themselves through the act of viewing and, in the end, they become the subject of Lasker’s carpet.
<br><br>
Jonathan Lasker has enjoyed solo exhibitions at Greene Naftali, Cheim & Read, Sperone Westwater and at institutions including the Reina Sofia, Madrid; K20 Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf, The Power Plant Toronto, The Stedelijk Amsterdam; and the ICA Philadelphia, among many others. His work is held in numerous public collections in Europe and North America, including the Albright-Knox Gallery, Buffalo; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Hirshhorn Museum Washington, DC; LACMA; The Metropolitan Museum New York, The Moderna Museet, Stockholm, The Reina Sofia, Madrid, MOMA, New York, The Museum Ludwig, Cologne, The NGA Washington, DC, The National Gallery of Canada, and the Whitney Museum New York.
