鈥楤ig Ideas 鈥 Richard Jackson鈥檚 Alleged Paintings鈥 at Crocker through Aug. 25
Richard Jackson, who was born and raised in Sacramento, is well known for combining a playful sense of humor and sharp wit with an unconventional approach to painting. Influenced by Abstract Expressionism and action painting, he meticulously engineers sculptural machines that he activates, causing violent eruptions or seeping trickles of paint. The exhibition at Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento runs through Aug. 25.
The liquid pigments 鈥 often comically meant to suggest bodily fluids 鈥 are spurted, splattered, and sprayed on gallery walls, pedestals, and floors. Jackson also works in neon, paper, and canvas. He draws from a broad visual lexicon, which includes domestic environments, universal human functions and activities, and what he sees as hallmarks of American life, such as hunting and sports as well as consumerism and addiction to oil. Through what he describes as his alleged paintings, Jackson questions traditions in the contemporary art world.
Jackson studied art and engineering at Sacramento State from 1959鈥1961 and held his first solo exhibition at the Crocker Art Museum in 1961. He has lived in the Los Angeles area since 1968 but frequents the Sacramento region, where he maintains his family鈥檚 ranch. His work has since been shown at museums and important venues around the world.

Art. Ink. Icon. At de Young July 13
Up until the 1970s, getting inked was fairly transactional: customers could pick only from a menu of set tattoo designs from the wall. When Ed Hardy moved to San Francisco, he opened the first tattoo parlor focused on custom commissions, a practice that changed the landscape of American tattooing.
Ed Hardy: Deeper than Skin is the first museum retrospective of Hardy鈥檚 work. On view at the de Young starting July 13, the exhibition tracks the evolution of tattooing from its 鈥渙utsider鈥 status to an important visual art form through Hardy鈥檚 work and influence. General de Young information
