그림 소개

Jasper Johns named Usuyuki, painted in 1977–1978 and now in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, after the Japanese term for light or thin snow. Its shifting patterns and subdued colours suggest flakes drifting down. Johns cut newspaper into strips and covered them with pigment mixed into beeswax, the material of encaustic painting. Once the mixture was on the canvas, he pressed round and rectangular cans into it. Their impressions remain distributed over the surface, interrupting the painted and collaged layers.

미술관의 설명

Usuyuki is a Japanese word meaning thin or light snow and, indeed, the painting's subtle colors and intricate patterns, with their suggestions of movement, recall the drift of falling snowflakes. Johns's method of painting at this time involved cutting strips of newspaper and covering them with a mixture of pigment and beeswax, called encaustic. After applying this mixture to the canvas, Johns pressed circular and rectangular cans into the surface to create visible imprints throughout the image.
