Author: Jones, JennieThis slim, smartly designed volume accompanies two concurrent exhibitions centred on Jones – one of the artist’s work and one curated by her. It casts particular emphasis upon Jones’ repertoire of avant-garde influences, compiling her writings on artists Ellsworth Kelly, Agnes Martin, Louise Nevelson and Alma Thomas. A new text by Jones – where she meditates on the unexpected aesthetic and social links between multiple artists featured in her curated exhibition – also figures.For three decades, American artist Jennie C. Jones has probed the boundaries between visual art and sound through her multimedia works. Treating abstract geometric forms and a restrained range of colours as her aesthetic base, Jones incorporates nontraditional materials such as felt, acoustic panels and instrument strings to create paintings and sculptures that modify the acoustics of their environments.ISBN 9780997690187.
