The Artist

Annie Hooker is represented at JG by a single work — acrylic on paper at. That price for a single paper work signals ambition: this is a piece that justifies its price through scale, intensity of surface, or both, rather than through the conventional expectation that paper works cost less than canvas.

Acrylic on paper occupies an interesting position in the hierarchy of media: more permanent than watercolor, more immediate than oil on canvas, capable of the kind of layered surface that acrylic on board achieves while retaining the transparency and texture that paper provides. Hooker's work at JG demonstrates this medium at a level that commands gallery placement rather than being limited to the study or sketchbook.

The Work

At the piece sits at the upper range of works on paper in the JG program — above Randena Walsh, above Amy Ferron, at a price that the work must justify through formal quality alone. The gallery's decision to place it at that price reflects the assessment that the quality is there.

Contact the gallery directly to view the work in person and to discuss Hooker's broader practice. A single piece is an introduction; the gallery holds additional context and can facilitate access to the artist's full body of work.
