Item Description

This Primary Chair artwork involves both juxtaposition and recognition of darker implications in a search for truth that looks beyond overdetermined channels for reading the meaning. Many of these works appear ordinary, while they also evoke new layers of meaning as artworks are experienced through time, as new meanings emerge, and as the works inhabit New spaces. Sometimes these represent lived experiences, both real and imagined.

 
From 2003 to 2013, Jim taught Art Education for CSU Fullerton, contributing to the development of Art Education Teachers throughout Southern California and active membership in the California Art Education Association.


A graduate of USC Davis, a degree in History, and a BFA in Painting from Art Center College.

He lived and worked in Brooklyn from 1986-2003.

He completed his MFA in painting from Mason Gross School of Arts at Rutgers in 1992 and earned a Masters in Art Education from Teachers College Columbia University in 2006.
