About the Item
John Baker’s “The Death of Nelson Rockefeller”, a double portrait, is an acrylic painting on canvas with collage 36 x 48 x 1.5 inches in pinks, greys, greens and blues. Rockefeller’s mistress is depicted naked, as she was when the former Vice President died in the midst of a sexual encounter with her. It was reported that after his death she dressed the body and impassively considered her options with a girlfriend before calling 911. 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.
