Description: KEN JOHNSON (Australian b.1950) MEDIUM: OIL ON CANVAS. SIGNED AND DATED BY THE ARTIST. 1986 2” SLICE IN THE HAND SECTION. DIMENSIONS: 29”H x 25”W Ken Johnson is an Australian painter best known for his realistic, panoramic views of the outback and coastal regions of Australia. Deep blues and rhythmic, graphic, curvilinear lines characterize Johnson’s depictions of not just his native Australia, but scenes culled from his travels in India and Italy. The perspective and subject matter in his works have the sublime qualities of early 19th century Romantic painter Caspar David Friedrich. Born in 1950 in Sydney, Australia, the artist went on to study graphic design and painting at the National Art School in Sydney before traveling extensively around Australia and the rest of the world. In the 2000s, Johnson began incorporating dusty and fiery reds into his canvases, also exploring the subject of the nude. His works are in the collections of the Art Trust in Melbourne, the Newcastle Regional Art Gallery in Australia, Edith Cowan University in Perth, and the National Museum of Damascus, among others. Johnson lives and works in Sydney, Australia.
