About the Item
John Goodman was born in California and graduated from the University of California at Davis. He is an American Postwar and Contemporary painter who draws inspiration from the early modernists and the Bay Area Figurative Movement. Using his signature thick impasto paint and a minimal range of colors, the artist sculpts and draws to create painterly surfaces that are charged with directness and intensity. His images are consistently figurative, yet in each, there is a strong pull towards abstraction.
Goodman’s oil paintings are often based on his drawings from weekly sessions with a live model, yet his newest work is inspired by “found” 16th century drawings by unknown artists, and it features theatrical scenes that capture multiple people in varying states of action. Goodman uses the simple line drawings as a point of departure for imagining dramatic narratives of which even he does not know the origin. Yet through these mysterious but “familiar” scenes, there is a thread that connects the contemporary viewer with the distant pasts of people and places.

John Goodman
John Goodman is an American artist born in California. His paintings, drawings and sculptures are a dichotomy of understated minimalism with reductive use of color that conveys a subtle, but evident smoldering energy. Goodman uses thick paint that he sculpts and draws into, as he forms a rich tactile field of painterly surfaces. In his images, there is a strong pull toward abstraction. Bay Area influences are present in his work, particularly that of Nathan Oliveira, who Goodman was privileged to have had as his mentor. Goodman's sophisticated and understated paintings, drawings and sculptures are exhibited coast to coast, have premiered at International Art Fairs and are collected worldwide.
