About the Item

Oil on canvas Signed This painting is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City. “When two worlds collide, mayhem or genius can ensue. Consider the freestyle fellowship that has developed between painter John Bailly and poet Richard Blanco, and the latter rings true. . . The gang of two has spun what might be read as dynamic visual diaries by engaging in a conversational collaborative process, which allowed the raw intensity of their personal dramas and musings on history to flow.” — Carlos Suarez de Jesus, Miami New Times John William Bailly is a French-American artist born in the United Kingdom. He received an MFA in painting and printmaking from Yale University, and has been a Faculty Fellow of the Honors College at Florida International University since 2004. His work explores the random nature of information and the methods we employ to process it. Juxtaposing diverse data and multiple historical references, Bailly’s work strives for the viewer to reflect upon the manner in which they conceptualize realities. Bailly’s works have been exhibited at University of Maine Museum of Art, Patricia and Philip Frost Museum of Art, John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, and Texas State University, as well as other venues in the United States and France. He was awarded the South Florida Cultural Consortium Fellowship for Visual and Media Artists and a State of Florida Individual Artist Grant. In 2007, Bailly and critically acclaimed poet Richard Blanco produced a collaborative project, “Place of Mind.” At FIU, Bailly founded the Aesthetics & Values project, an interdisciplinary curatorial program that has earned national recognition. He has been awarded two Excellence in Teaching awards and a European Union grant for course development. Contact Gallery for Price.
