James Kalm endures drenching rain to bring viewers a brief glimpse of "Jasper Johns Drawings 1997-2007". As perhaps the most recognized living American artist, every aspect of his enigmatic work is unique and engaging. Since his emergence in the late 1950s he has maintained a prolific practice of drawing, using unusual technique and materials to both develop new ideas and reexamine old ones. This show, which piggy-backs "Gray" at the Metropolitan Museum, is an opportunity to see the developments of Johns' current thinking.

  • John Yau's book on Johns is a great read.

  • What 's impressive is that there is no low point in his career; he explores, he creates, he renews all the time...

  • This video is really a treat. "He's making drawings of paintings"...that's a great summing up of Johns's art...

  • nyce vid

  • OMG! I wish i was there!!!!!!!!! I LOVE JASPER!

  • damn art was never about the frame or ornaments around the frame,it was all about how the artist manipulated the oil colors onto the canvas,sad times change for the worst.

  • Well if he was born in 1930 then he would be 78 years old on may 15th 2008.
