About the Item
John Baker’s “Shotgun Wedding” is an acrylic painting on canvas with collage 56 x 30 x 1.5 inches in greens, whites, flesh tones and yellows. The bride is radiant on her wedding day, which is also the day of the birth of her child! Is she revealing herself seductively to her new husband or to her newborn for a first feeding? The bridesmaid on the left is also pregnant, although her fetus is far less fully developed than the bride’s, who half-emerges from her womb fully clothed! 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.
