About the Item
John Baker’s “The Interpretation of Dreams: an Imaginary Portrait”, an acrylic painting on canvas 30 x 30 inches in maroons, tans and mint green, is from the artist’s “Psychoanalyst Series”. The lady analyst, seated behind the invisible couch on which her invisible patient lies, turns away from him in response to the off-color and uncensored dream which he has just recounted. Clearly the dream has caused her to reflect inwardly, responding at least in part with her own awakened sexuality. 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.
