*UPDATED* Artist Bios
Jo Jackson
Growing
up in Colombia, Maryland, Jo Jackson now lives in Portland, Oregon with
her artist husband Chris Johanson. Jackson is an artist active in an
art community called the “Mission School” in San Francisco. Her forms
are square and her colors cute and organic. Jackson’s precise and
vibrantly figurative paintings are psychologically provocative while
remaining beautiful and accessible symbols of our times. Jackson’s work
is included in the ground-breaking museum show “Beautiful Losers.”
Chris Johanson
Chris Johanson grew up in San Francisco and is well known for his
paintings, sculptures, and installations depicting the human experience
and the resulting physical world people inhabit together. Johanson has
developed his own personal pictorial language, mixing many mediums and
what he refers to as “selfish expressionism” or “the life arts.” For
over a decade, Johanson has been transforming the commonplace
activities of the day-to-day into simple stories, frozen in time for us
to observe. He comments on the age of consumerism, the corporate
ladder, as well as modern psychological phenomena such as self-help and
psychotherapy. He creates a world where nudist dancers,
emotionally-centered people, forest energy, abstract rainbows and “good
vibes” exist next to a sinister comic edge sometimes reflecting the
human experience’s darkest places. Johanson has exhibited his works
worldwide including exhibitions at the San Francisco Museum of Modern
Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art. He was also featured in LA
Weekly in June 2006 and discussed his art, what drives him, and his
marriage to fellow RVCA artist Jo Jackson.
Ed Templeton
All
of Ed Templeton’s “work” is seen through a self-placed filter formed by
his experiences. He currently resides in Huntington Beach, and
describes it as a hotbed of right-wing conservatives, skinheads, and
religious fervor, as well as being a beach community full of surfers
and skaters. In 2000, his first book Teenage Smokers won the Search for
Art competition in Italy. It is a collection of photographs and
Polaroids of teenagers smoking. Teenagers from all over the world are
featured in his book, most of who are young teenagers. Templeton was
amazed the way they act with cigarettes; the way they dress and hold
themselves hit him in an interesting way. It was in 1999 at his solo
show, “The Golden Age of Neglect” at the Alleged gallery, where he
finally joined his painting and photography for the first time. Since
then, he has been to the Netherlands, France, Milan, Rome, England,
Finland, Canada, and Germany for an abundance of solo and group tours.
Deanna Templeton
Deanna
Templeton's photographs document the skater subculture from a female
point of view, something she has pursued with her series of
"autographed girls" for the past seven years. Her photos capture the
young groupies who flock to skateboarding events in Southern
California, not as skateboarders themselves, but as fans of the skaters
who perform. Her work has previously been shown at n44 in Paris, Museum
Het Domein in Holland and the Contemporary Art Center of Virginia.
Deanna has been featured in Venus magazine and her photography has
recently been featured in Anthem magazine. -“New Image Art Gallery”
Ashley Macomber
After
living in Rome and New York, Ashley Macomber now stays and works in Los
Angeles. Originally from Massachusetts, she received a BA in paining at
Rhode Island School of Design. Her work focuses on human relationships
with an emphasis on family dynamics and the patterns that repeat
themselves in American society. She is also concerned with the limited
visibility of women in the art world as well as the narrow
representations of women in general popular culture. When she isn’t
painting, she plays fetch with her cat, rides her bike, and enjoys
watching video blogs online.
