he thrill of following artists is not
trying to guess what they’ll do next,
but how they’ll circumvent your expecta-
tions. Case in point: Jeremy Mann. In
recent years the artist, known primarily as a
painter, has explored photography, interac-
tive installations based on his photoshoots
and even a full-length film, The Conductor,
that he released last year. The joy of his
work is being continuously surprised at
what he comes up with, and what medium
it will be in.
For his new show, one that may be his
last for a year or possibly more, Mann will
be showing new figures, new photographs
and new cityscapes—including what may
be his last full-color cityscape he ever
paints—at EVOKE Contemporary August
30 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The show is
inspired by the many forms of art he’s been
experimenting with. “A dedicated and self-
respecting insight into my own art,” he says,
“invoking more personal aesthetics gleaned
from inspirations found in all forms of my
creativity: painting, drawing, photography,
filmmaking, writing and more.”
The show will include his last three
cityscape paintings, including SF17, which
is composed with bands of vertical paint
that heighten, somewhat literally, the
drama and mood of his rainy city scenes.
