With his representations of letters, numbers, targets and flags in a simple, clear visual language, he sets new accents and lays the foundation not only for Pop Art, but also for American minimalism. Born in Augusta, Georgia in 1930 and raised in South Carolina, Johns left the Southern States at the age of 22 to settle in New York. He follows his childhood dream of becoming an artist. In New York, Johns met numerous artists, including Robert Rauschenberg, John Cage and Merce Cunningham, with whom he had a lively exchange in the years that followed. In 1954/55 he created his groundbreaking painting "Flag", a work that consists of layered overpainting of collaged strips of newspaper. As a result, Johns switched from the house painter used previously to the faster drying wax paints. This color enables him to superimpose brushstrokes in rapid succession without destroying their independence. It becomes the hallmark of his work. The year 1958 marks the artistic breakthrough. Johns has his first solo exhibition at the newly opened Leo Castelli Gallery in New York. His work is shown at the Venice Biennale, the Museum of Modern Art buys three of his works, and the art world engages with his oeuvre. However, after his gallery debut, Johns partially broke away from the style of painting that quickly earned him high acclaim. As if in continuation of the formal strategies of Abstract Expressionism, he proceeded to painting the often non-representational field with aggressive, sometimes bundled brushstrokes in white, black, gray and the three primary colors as well as their direct derivatives. The painting process itself now becomes more important than external signs. This interest in the process character led Johns to printmaking in the early 1960s. The way he works reflects his love of experimentation and encourages him to make decisive innovations in screen printing, lithography and etching. In the 1980s, Johns' painting style changed again. Autobiographical features and realistic figuration gain in importance. This practice of introducing a new style in painting and at the same time turning to earlier motifs in graphic work and repeating, mirroring and serializing them becomes a key motif of John's artistic practice. Over the past 50 years, Johns has created an extensive and complex oeuvre that is held in Allen the major museums and collections of 20th-century art. century is represented.
