About the Item
John Baker’s “The Post-Truth Era: First Impact” is an acrylic painting on canvas with collage 20 x 16 x 1.5 inches in pinks, oranges, blues and whites. During the last decade, as the Post-Truth Era dawned, one consequence was a nauseating disorientation as the realization first sunk in that the old and seemingly eternal verities had vanished. Culture and society are truly the worse off for the loss. The painting is signed and dated on the reverse; in its wide wood frame it is 31 x 27 x 3.5 inches.
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 based in Boston, MA.
