Backman, Jim Nutt, 1966, Minneapolis Institute of Art: Paintings

cartoon images inspired by comic book flow: Backman in yellow lettering against orange cloud ULC; gun pointed at a pink tear-drop with puncture hole and red droplets; hand at URC holding an image of a woman with red hair in a white dress; two figures in blue looking toward a door with shadow of a male figure in a hat at L; double-faced man against background of rings and woman's underwear at R; muscle-bound faceless figure LL, car lower C; scene inside car with man about to run over muscle figure; in silver frame Jim Nutt first attracted international attention as a member of a six-member group called the Hairy Who. They exhibited together several times between 1966-69 around the country but were based initially Chicago. The group espoused no collective philosophy or formal manifesto but came together out of shared sensibilities. Comics, humor, hygiene ads, vernacular material culture in Chicago (hand-painted signs, pinball machines, product catalogues), and bawdy puns populated their work. Among artists drawing on popular culture in the 1960s, they gravitated to the odd, the disturbing, and the ultra-local. Nutt’s Backman exemplifies these tendencies in their work in 1966; exquisitely made in a painstaking technique (the image was painted on the reverse side of a piece of pristine smooth Plexiglas) but with a comics subject matter that is invented, absurdist, violent and perplexing. Size: 23 1/2 × 17 1/4 in. (59.69 × 43.82 cm) (sight) 24 × 18 1/4 × 1 in. (60.96 × 46.36 × 2.54 cm) (outer frame) Medium: Acrylic on the reverse of Plexiglas panel with aluminum frame

Four from “Outliers and American Vanguard Art” at #nationalgalleryofart #washingtondc #Jimnutt #marsdenhartley #morrishirshfield from the web page: “focuses on three periods over the last century when the intersection of self-taught artists with the mainstream has been at its most fertile. It is the first major exhibition to explore how those key moments, which coincided with periods of American social, political, and cultural upheaval, challenged or erased traditional hierarchies and probed prevailing assumptions about creativity, artistic practice, and the role of the artist in contemporary culture. Bringing together some 250 works in a range of media, the exhibition includes more than 80 schooled and unschooled artists and argues for a more diverse and inclusive representation in cultural institutions and cultural history.” #painting #gallery #arthistory

Painting #5

I was happy with the outcome of the painting. The reverse side I wasn’t happy with as much because I didn’t know how to manipulate it correctly and wasn’t used to painting in that way. However I really liked the material we worked on and like the flatness element it gave the painting on the reverse side. #JimNutt
