Castle Hill is pleased to host its second exhibit of the work of California artist, Mitchell Johnson, September 7-18, 2022. This survey exhibit, titled, Mitchell Johnson Nothing and Change, will span 1990-2022 and include new paintings from Paris, Newfoundland, Cape Cod and New York as well as early work from France, Denmark and North Truro.
Chris Busa wrote in Provincetown Arts in 2012:
“If many of Johnson's paintings are titled after the places that inspired them, no such places actually exist. Each one is a collage of compressed intimacies spread out over the months it takes to paint them. He has done what Edwin Dickinson called Premier Coup, in which a painting is completed outdoors in one blow. Yet his typical practice is to hold a painting for several months, or more, in the studio, to see if a painting stands the test of repeated looking, often involving the process of memory revision, where a succession of impressions gained over weeks or months is expressed as continuous flow.”
An 80 page exhibition catalog with an essay by the poet, Jesse Nathan, and exhibition posters will be available.
