Jack Hooper
"Side Stretch Nude" 1984 Figure Gouache and Pastel American Modernist

1984

About the Item

Jack Hooper "Side Stretch Nude" 9/7/1984 Gouache and pastel on paper 20"x26" unframed Signed and dated in pencil lower left In this intriguing modernist artwork, Jack Hooper's minimalist touch shines through. The solitary figure, painted in rich, earthy brown hues, leans gracefully toward the ground, evoking a sense of contemplation and balance. Precisely outlined in bold black pastel, the figure stands out against a serene background of light cream wash that gently encircles its form. Hooper's artistic choice to allow the paint to bleed on the paper, particularly in the rendering of hands and feet, adds an element of rawness and spontaneity to the composition. This piece is a testament to the power of minimalism in art, where simplicity and restraint give rise to a profound expression of human presence and vulnerability.
