About Mitchell Johnson

Mitchell Johnson: Mitchell Johnson's color- and shape-driven paintings exist at the intersection of color theory, art history, nostalgia, and observed experience.His work is in the permanent collections of 40 museums and has been exhibited alongside that of Milton Avery, Georgia O'Keeffe, Wolf Kahn, and Richard Diebenkorn.The legendary art critic Donald Kuspit wrote about Johnson's work in the July 2023 issue ofWhitehot Magazine:“Johnson is a master of abstraction, as his oddly constructivist paintings show, but of unconscious feeling, for his geometry serves to contain and with that control the strong feelings implicit in his strong colors. Apart from that, his paintings are art historically important, because they seamlessly fuse abstraction and realism, which Kandinsky tore apart to the detriment of both even as he recognized that they were implicitly inseparable, tied together in a Gordian knot, as they masterfully are in Johnson's paintings.”
