Description:
In November 1996, after seeing the Jasper Johns show at the Museum of Modern Art, Shoshana Cooper became intrigued by several of Johns' lesser known works which were labeled as "acrylic on plastic" and 'ink on plastic'. Since she was already using acrylic paint by that time, she decided to try using a clear plastic that is very similar to mylar. Immediately, she found that the paint moved more easily as it was applied and when she turned the work over to the opposite side, she discovered thatthe colorwas much more intense. Cooper has since developed her technique so that the verso (the unpainted side) is always my finished product, although some paintings could have both sides displayed. The results have been quite striking, although there is verylittle resemblance to the Johns' works that originally inspired her. Buyer pays shipping and insurance costs.
