Jasper Johns was born in Augusta, Georgia on May 15, 1930. He is still alive today known for his paintings and printmaking. During his childhood, he lived with his father’s grandparents due to his parents’ marriage ending. His only introduction to art as a child was of paintings in his grandfather’s house of his grandmother who had died. He then moved around among with his aunt then his mother throughout his teenage years, and then finally graduated high school in Sumter South Carolina as valedictorian of his class. After high school, Jasper then spent little time enrolled at the University of South Carolina, and later directed his education to New York City studying at the Parsons School of Design. A few years later he was drafter to Sendai, Japan to fight during the Korean War in 1952. Two years later, he came back to New York where he met his partner, Robert Rauschenberg. Jasper’s art career began when he discovered the world of contemporary art sharing views with Merce Cunningham and John Cage. His work was revealed at Rauschenberg’s studio to Leo Castelli, a gallery owner who gave Jasper his first solo show in 1958. This led to his pieces being bought by the founder of New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Later in 1963, Johns and Cage both founded the Foundation of Contemporary Performance Arts in New York City, which is now known today as the Foundation of Contemporary Arts.

The big part of postmodern theory deals with the belief of preexistence of the art all around us. The artist is the one who can recognize these elements of art around as and synthesize them into the art work. This art work becomes object of interpretation which inevitably varies among different generations, social groups, national group, religious groups, and depends on some extent of the educational level of the observers and it is also different in the same individual in different times or environments. The different interpretations of

The history of art dates back to ancient times. Artwork can be, and was, found around the world. What makes art interesting is that it can be created in any way, shape or form with any materials. It seems that the artwork can also tell us a lot about the artist. Art seems to be simply, a direct, visual reflection of the artist’s life. Therefore, one can assume that an artist’s life experiences and beliefs directly influence their art. If we look at examples from different periods of art we will be able to see the connection between the artist and the art.
