About the Item
John Baker’s “My Neighbors Became Lovers: An Imaginary Double Portrait” is an acrylic painting on canvas with collage 36 x 30 inches in chocolate browns and pinks counterpointed by deep greens. The true subject of the painting is the flow of thoughts and feelings between the couple visualized as luminous energies. On the mystical level, an ancient and perennial question is raised: are we many individual consciousnesses or are we one? The sides are unpainted and the painting is signed and dated on the reverse.
John Baker is a widely exhibited painter based in Boston and New York whose solo exhibitions have been favorably reviewed in the Boston Globe (his paintings demonstrate that the human figure as a source of fresh ideas still endures), Art New England (Baker’s collages raise a bunch of interesting issues) and American Art Collector (John Baker’s wonderful and worthy project). A native of New York City, Baker was a pupil of Donald Judd for two years. The sculptor’s constructivist method remains an influence on Baker’s collage process, but Baker’s artistic results are more sensual and emotional as he adds the elements of subtle color harmony and reliance on impulse. Baker is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.
