About the Item

Jimmie James’ “redemption” is a colorful, gesturally abstract 20.75 x 20.75 inch painting in acrylic on watercolor paper in a soft pastel palette of white, pink, yellow, green, and gray. White paint obscures painted shapes and areas, as though viewed through a mist. Syncopated patches of color seem to float against this pure white background while scratchy automatic writing and drawing etched into the surface contrasts with the brushy application of paint. Near the center of the work the words “recall” and “surrender” seem to have a personal significance in this delicate, emotional piece. The raw immediacy of James’ line work provides a visual counterpoint to his expressive use of color and paint. Executed in Hang Dong, Thailand, this is an unframed work on paper. Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Jimmie James is a poet, painter, actor and singer/songwriter. This renaissanced artist has long been a fixture of New York City’s art, theater and music scene, showing at a number of galleries including 571 Projects, Andrea Schwartz Gallery, Boltax Gallery, and Thomas Werner Gallery, to name a few. He has performed in works by theatrical luminaries including Richard Maxwell, Christina Masciotti, Danny Hoch, and Susan Lori Parks, and has composed for theater and film, where projects include Seth Zvi Rosenfeld’s “Everything’s Turning into Beautiful,” Amos Poe’s “Empire II.” Whether painting, performing or composing, Jimmie James’ work remains accessible while refusing containment. He is doggedly trans-disciplinary: part shaman, part poet, part craftsman. Combining paint, fiber, word and image into tapestry-like works on canvas and paper, he creates pieces that exhibit a strong sense of emotional integrity and truth, through spontaneous, organic line work and considered use of color.
