Jasper Johns

An exhibition of three masterworks by Jasper Johns is on view in Room 9 of The Pavilions at Glenstone Museum, beginning February 12 (year unspecified). The installation highlights Johns’s pivotal role in challenging Abstract Expressionism during the late 1950s by introducing familiar symbols—targets, numbers, maps—into his paintings, thereby blurring the line between representation and abstraction. One featured painting, *Flag on an Orange Field II* (1958), reimagines the American flag with painterly complexity, collapsing the boundary between representation and reality and inviting viewers to consider the flag not as a fixed symbol but as an image open to interpretation. The presentation includes three artworks in total, offering a focused look at Johns’s ongoing inquiry into how symbols shape cultural and political narratives.

Venue: Glenstone Museum, The Pavilions, Room 9.

When: On view beginning February 12. No end date provided.

Artworks: *Flag on an Orange Field II* (1958), *Within* (1983/2005), and *Numbers* (2007). All three are currently on view.
