FEATURED ARTIST
Masterful design and powerful storyteling - in a single canvas. Having studied with Richard Diebenkorn, Phillips expands on his teacher’s love of light, particularly the blue light of southern California. With this use of color and love of paint, Phillips engages history, both narrative and psychological. His ethos is evident in the choice of subjects; rather than representing recorded histories, he explores inner lives, dreams, fantasies, and for many, secret wishes and desires.
Working across various mediums - painting, film, theatre, and poetry - John Ransom Phillips lives and works in New York but has spent significant periods of time in Europe and Egypt. While continuing his painting and creative writing, he completed his BFA at the San Francisco Art Institute and Ph.D. at the University of Chicago.
Sleeping Presidents by John Ransom Phillips is a special collection of works exploring the lives and legacies of American Presidents.
