About the Item
John Baker’s “Music Makers” is an acrylic painting on canvas with collage 30 inches x 40 inches in blues, oranges, pinks, yellows and browns. The image is accomplished in contrasting styles. The violin and sheet music are painted in a realistic style suggesting materiality, objectivity and stability, while the figures are rendered expressionistically, and are shown dissolved in their subjectivities, spiritual energies and personal responses to the music. Style and meaning are thereby fused. The painting is unframed and 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 based in Boston, MA.

By John Baker
Located in Natick, MA
John Baker’s “On the Beach”, an acrylic painting on canvas with collage 68 x 46 x 1.5 inches in lavenders, maroons and Van Dyck browns, depicts a couple together in fantastic costumes as they brave a dark world. Conjoined as bodies, they form a powerful dyad of selves expressing triumph rather than mere forbearance. Their thoughts and feelings, brilliant flashes of light lavender and yellow above and between their heads, are like insights and interpersonal connections illuminating the darkness. The painting’s title and meaning allude to Neville Shute’s On the Beach and, subliminally, to Matthew Arnold...
