  • 8 Things to Know About Jonas Wood
    Paddle8 Editorial October 2015 8 Things to Know About Jonas Wood By Melissa Caspary A view into the L.A. artist's inspiration, interiors, and iterative process. Upon hearing the name Jonas Wood, what most likely comes to mind are bold, graphic potted plants and captivating interior scenes. In recent years, Wood has garnered much attention for paintings that treat these and other subjects in a manner that is simultaneously highly accessible and highly personal, at once of-the-moment and rooted in art historical traditions. Wood's fractured interior scenes replete with pattern represent ordinary scenes in a such a way that the familiar becomes foreign. His treatment of space calls attention to the flatness of the picture plane in the Modernist tradition, while his skillful synthesis of disparate compositional elements and layers of pattern imbues the scenes with energy. While paying homage to Modernism and Pop Art, Wood's work is defined by its own charmingly idiosyncratic nature. Whether portraying professional sports, urban landscapes, or his own living room, Wood breathes a second life into the mundane, presenting these quotidian settings in a refreshing new light. As Wood's Black Landscape Pot 3 comes up in our auction to support the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, we take a look at eight notable facets of the artist's work and life. ! Jonas Wood, "Blue Rug Still Life," 2014, via David Kordansky Gallery and L.A. Weekly. 1.He's equal parts East Coast and West Coast.

    G A G O S I A N March 13, 2017 ED RUSCHA JONAS WOOD NOTEPADS, HOLOGRAMS AND BOOKS Opening reception: Thursday, March 30, 5–7PM March 30–June 17, 2017 657 Howard Street San Francisco, CA 94015 Gagosian is pleased to present “Notepads, Holograms and Books,” an exhibition of works by Ed Ruscha and Jonas Wood, two artists who explore the nature of the real and the represented, language and image, writing and typography. The exhibition includes paintings, holograms, and hand-modified books by Ruscha, and new paintings by Wood. In Ruscha’s work, the traditions and techniques of graphic design and the restrained artistry of typesetting serve as vehicles for the commutation between picture and word, sign and signifier. He superimposes text and image across media: from billboards to books; from screens to paintings and holograms. With the reverence and technical mastery of a trompe l'oeil, the painting Fanned Book (2012) depicts the turning pages of a bound volume with marbled endpapers. Elsewhere, Ruscha’s word-paintings of phrases such as “OH NO,” migrate to the spines and fore-edges of actual books. Small works on canvas show granular, individual typeset alphabetic letters— Page 1 of 3 G A G O S I A N examining the form, as much as the emblematic function, of the phoneme—and a hologram proclaims “THE END” in stylized letters on what appears to be vellum, making light projection resemble an archaic art. Through a shifting exchange of abstraction and figuration, the book in all its forms pervades Ruscha’s investigations of the nature of language and the distribution of information.

    Bloomberg March 21, 2019 GAGOSIAN Basketball, Poker Propel Painter to Pinnacle of the Art World Jonas Wood’s first U.S. museum survey is opening in Dallas. Auction sales for the artist generated $13.2 million last year Katya Kazakina Jonas Wood in his Los Angeles studio Photo: Brian Forrest, Courtesy the artist A 5-foot-tall basketball with a chair hidden within is the centerpiece of Jonas Wood’s Los Angeles studio -- a throne that burly men could parade around on a festive occasion. Wood, an avid sports fan and card player whose paintings have depicted NBA Hall of Famers Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Charles Barkley and Bill Walton and poker legend Doyle Brunson, has plenty to celebrate. His first museum survey in the U.S. opens this week at the Dallas Museum of Art with more than 30 paintings, including portraits of his family and friends. Billionaires Yusaku Maezawa and Eli Broad, Guess founders Maurice and Paul Marciano, as well as museums such as the Whitney and Guggenheim, are among those loaning works for the event. “This is just the beginning,” said Wood, who turns 42 next week. “It’s still, in a way, an audition for greatness.” Wood, a burly 6-foot-3, often appears in public sporting a beanie and baggy pants and has risen from obscurity to the top of the contemporary art pyramid. His auction sales generated $13.2 million last year, the most of any artist in the “ultra-contemporary” segment, according to Artnet. Next month, Gagosian gallery will stage its first solo show of his new works in New York, with prices for some pieces exceeding $600,000.
