THE EMPIRE IS FALLING
Nov 5, 2021 – Jan 16, 2022
THE ROBERT L. BRANDT, JR. FAMILY GALLERY
& THE IRA H. & SUSAN P. THOMSEN FAMILY GALLERY
Jones’ paintings are comprised of the rended covers of books whose purpose is to influence, educate, and inform. In his effort to investigate omissions and falsehoods deeply embedded within these volumes, Jones sews the book covers back together to create uncannily beautiful abstract paintings, often at a large scale.
