Born in 1923 in Coney Island, Jonah’s early influences were discovered during visits to the Metropolitan Museum- “When I really saw the old masters, it blew my mind, of course.” He attended Cooper Union for a year before he was drafted into the Army, serving from 1942 – 1945. Soon after, Jonah moved to Paris where he spent time at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, conversing with other aspiring artists, exchanging ideas, exhibiting his work, seeing established artists, and generally soaking up a fertile creative environment. He exhibited in several shows including the Salon D’Automne, Salon de Mai, and the Salon des Moins de Trente Ans, and had one-man shows in the Galerie Breteau and Les Impressions D’Art. After Paris, Jonah moved to Rome on a Fulbright Scholarship and studied at the La Schola Di Belles Artes. After a year, he returned to the U.S. and exhibited his paintings at the Downtown Gallery in Manhattan. A classically trained painter whose ambitions were frustrated by the New York art world’s obsession with Abstract Expressionism and the lucrative industry that grew up around it. Like so many painters, he was unable to make a living solely from painting, so he worked in the commercial art world and did freelance illustration and design. Throughout this time, Jonah’s commitment to his own art never wavered, and he continued to paint and occasionally exhibit. He was included in the MoMA show, Summer Exhibition: New Acquisitions; Recent American Prints, 1947–1953; Katherine S. Dreier Bequest; Kuniyoshi and Spencer; Expressionism in Germany; Varieties of Realism along with Alexander Archipenko, Francis Bacon, Balthus, Will Barnet, Leonard Baskin, Eugene Berman, Reg Butler, Lovis Corinth, Andre Derain, Otto Dix, Raoul Dufy, Max Ernst, Lucian Freud, George Grosz, Alexei Jawlensky...

In his drawings, John MacWhinnie's touch looks both fast and careful. As passages of light and dark gray build themselves into volumes, the surface takes on a lively filicker. Lots of paper shows through, so white advances constantly twoard the eye, flattening volumetric forma and working against illusions of space. Space resists: MacWhinnie's flickering grays lead into depth and provide form - especially bodies - with convincing situations to inhabit.
Art Contradictions the Fascinate - NY Times Article
By DAVID L. SHIREY
Published: June 28, 1981
WATER MILL THOUGH he is only 36 years old, John MacWhinnie has been a presence in Long Island painting circles for 15 years. He had his first solo exhibition at the Cord Gallery in Southampton in 1966, followed by a number of shows at Southampton College. He has also been featured at the Parrish Art Museum and garnered a prize at the Heckscher Museum for excellence in painting.
Mr. MacWhinnie took some time to find his own voice, having been influenced by Willem de Kooning, Larry Rivers and Alex Katz. He flirted with a variety of popular stylistic persuasions as if he, like Raphael, had to swallow all he admired before he could become his own man.
As his current exhibition at the Louise Himelfarb Gallery proves...
