About the Item
John Baker’s “Foot Feel” is a contemporary acrylic painting on canvas with collage 48.5 x 36 inches in pastel pinks and blues, and cream whites and lemon yellows. The toes of the gentleman’s right foot have become exploring fingers, while the woman seems incongruously receptive to his unusual approach. The incongruity of the scene is made still greater by the presence of an afghan hound in the lower right corner who has turned away from the humans with complete indifference. The sides are unpainted and the painting is signed and dated on the reverse.
John Baker is a widely exhibited painter based in Boston and New York whose solo exhibitions have been favorably reviewed in the Boston Globe (his paintings demonstrate that the human figure as a source of fresh ideas still endures), Art New England (Baker’s collages raise a bunch of interesting issues) and American Art Collector (John Baker’s wonderful and worthy project). A native of New York City, Baker was a pupil of Donald Judd for two years. The sculptor’s constructivist method remains an influence on Baker’s collage process, but Baker’s artistic results are more sensual and emotional as he adds the elements of subtle color harmony and reliance on impulse. Baker is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.
