About the Item

Neo Impressionist oil on board by New York/Pacific Northwest artist Jack Hammack Jack's works have been recently discovered in the Pacific Northwest where he lived the remainder of his life; where he was taught in the 1950's by renown artist Louis Bunch (1907-1983). Louis Bunch was well connected with artists in NYC such as Jackson Pollack, Robert Motherwell and Franz Kline, who were influential and in the same coterie as Jack. Jack showed in NYC before returning to the San Francisco area and finally settling back to the Portland area. He was a prolific artist and showed at many galleries in the 1940's-1960's. After that - he went into seclusion in what his peers called a "true artist life", not seeking recognition or accolades. From the Jack Hammack Discovery - "In the mid 1970s a rebellious movement in modern art had begun to take hold. After decades of “pure” abstraction, media inflected Pop Art and the rarified conceptualism of the 1960s, painters found that they needed something different – a different idea of painting and imagery. The resulting movement would eventually be labeled “neo-expressionism.” Neo-expressionist painters rejected minimalism and conceptual art and returned to portraying recognizable objects, such as the human body, in a rough and violent emotional way, often using vivid colors. An important painter who is considered to be a pioneer of neo-expressionism was #philipguston who renounced ab-ex in the late 1960s and shifted to abstracted figuration. It was during this same narrow patch of time that Jack Hammack progressed away from abstract expressionism and delved deeply into a style that was his true calling as an artist."
