BiographyJasper Johns is an American painter and printmaker whose groundbreaking works in the 1950s—most famously his depictions of flags, targets, numbers, and maps—helped bridge Abstract Expressionism and the emergence of Pop Art and Conceptualism. By treating familiar objects as both image and object simultaneously, he questioned assumptions about perception, meaning, and artistic representation. He is among the most collected and studied artists of the 20th and 21st centuries.
