Drenched in saturated scarlet, Red Pot with White Blouse is Jonas Wood’s homage to artist Henri Matisse, whose flattening of space and graphic application has remained one of Wood’s chief artistic influences. The work is a Matisse painting within another Matiﷺsse painting, superimposed on a pot, and graphed back into Wood’s idiosyncratic style. Red Pot with White Blouse epitomizes Jonas Wood’s masterful fusion of artistic influence and personal significance, transforming the humble pot into a riff on the traditional idea of painting-as-window.
Red Pot with White Blouse from Jonas Wood will be offered in Sotheby’s 168开奖官方开奖网站查询:Now Evening auction on 18 May at Sotheby’s New York as a part of the 168开奖官方开奖网站查询:New York Sales presented in partnership with CELINE.
