About the Item

JIM ISERMANN Untitled (4, 8, 2, in), 2018 Acrylic paint on canvas over aluminum panel 48 x 48 inches 121.9 x 121.9 cm Signed and dated (verso) (MMG#35096) -- A longtime resident of Palm Springs, Jim Isermann is known for his artistic practice that spans an array of media over nearly four decades. Situated at the intersection of fine art, mid-century design, and decorative craft, Isermann’s work is acutely attentive to pattern, color theory, and geometry. Moreover, Isermann’s art has been crucial to the elevation of design and the Arts and Craft movement as disciplines holding the same powerful and critical capacity of painting and sculpture. Rooted in queerness and camp aesthetics, Isermann’s work builds off his personal identity. With a desire to upend the restrictions of domestic space, he challenges the historically-gendered lens of both the Minimalist and Craft art movements. Intention is at the work’s core. Occasions of precision and asymmetry, feelings of joy and chaos: each mark, mold, and tuft is weighed and calculated, evolving into an oeuvre overflowing with spontaneity and life. Jim Isermann (b. 1955, Kenosha, WI) lives and works in Palm Springs, CA.
