Written by noted Johns expert Roberta Bernstein, the book explores the synergy between continuity and change in the development of the artist's work through 2014. The text is enlivened by the voluminous insight Bernstein has gained over decades of knowing the artist, and she incorporates Johns's own unique manner of talking about his art through interviews and public statements. Each chapter is focused on a specific time period and its prevailing themes in Johns's paintings and sculptures, and throughout the book related drawing and prints are referenced as contributions to an advanced understanding of the work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The book's compelling subtitle (the phrase appears, camouflaged, in Johns's 1966 painting \u003ci\u003ePassage II\u003c\/i\u003e), indicating an \"eye\" and an exhortation to \"redo\" it, neatly summarizes a persistent aspect of Johns's art. His works--at turns ambiguous, ironic, and poignant--simultaneously engage the visual senses and challenge habits of perception. \u003ci\u003eJasper Johns: Redo an Eye\u003c\/i\u003e is a thoughtful celebration of how Johns's art inspires the viewer to resist habits of perception, in turn affecting the way one experiences and interacts with the world: the hallmark of an extraordinary artist. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished in association with the Wildenstein Plattner Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300229356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.30h x 10.20w x 1.60d","brand":"Roberta Bernstein","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52571118370997,"sku":"9780300229356","price":54.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/jasper-johns-redo-an-eye-9780300229356","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
