Otherwise It’s Not, Eastern Projects Gallery, Los Angeles, CA Looking at Architecture, Porch Gallery, Ojai, CA, and HÔTEL: A Concert Exhibition, Ojai, CA. Recent exhibitions of his artwork include, It’s Art If I Say It’s Art. Joining Pereira Associates in Los Angeles in 1983 as Principal and Design Director, he and William Fain acquired the firm now known as Johnson Fain in 1988. Scott Johnson was born in California and educated at Stanford University, the University of California at Berkeley (BA in Architecture) and the Harvard Graduate School of Design (Master in Architecture), Johnson worked variously at The Architects Collaborative in Cambridge, the Los Angeles and San Francisco offices of Skidmore Owings Merrill, and the office of Philip Johnson and John Burgee in New York City. Johnson references and pays homage to many artists and cultural producers past and present all the while steadfastly building his own path forward. One experiences his artwork in almost a bricolage fashion, as disparate materials are brought together in an idiosyncratic visual language of his own making. Our world of glossy magazines, models, actors, political figures and the anonymous are embedded, torn, and turned every which way. Johnson, a voracious visual consumer of contemporary culture, creates layer upon layer of image, paint, and board to create dynamic and often colorful compositions. Uncommon Ground features recent works that incorporate collage and three dimensional surfaces in an array of experiments in shape and form. There will be a public reception to celebrate the opening on Saturday, October 30, 2021, from 5-7pm. The exhibition will be on view October 30 – December 31, 2021. Carolyn Glasoe Bailey Foundation is pleased to present Uncommon Ground, a solo exhibition project by Scott Johnson for the Gallery at Hotel Indigo Santa Barbara.
