About the Item
John Baker’s “Sanctuary Kiss”, an acrylic painting on canvas with collage 37 ¾ x 24 ¾ inches in luminous greens accented with light cobalt blues, is from the artist’s Sanctuary series. The colors of the faces of the central figures results in their merger with their forest environment, while the many flowers formed into fantastical costumes suggests that the viewer is witnessing a celebratory occasion. 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.
