Yousuf Karsh
Canadian, born Armenia, 1908–2002
Jasper Johns (born 1930) In the early 1950s Johns moved into the midst of the New York art world, quickly forming friendships with composer John Cage, dancer/choreographer Merce Cunningham, and artist Robert Rauschenberg. Over the years those men collaborated frequently and Johns created his own distinctive paintings, prints, and sculptures of flags, numbers, letters and other common imagery. His work has proved to be an influential part of Pop Art and Minimal Art, both of which enjoyed critical acclaim and market success during the later twentieth century.
