San Francisco-based artist Ian Johnson has a show opening this saturday, May 9th, at White Walls. This musically inspired artist was recently interviewed by the folks over at the Gallery. “Ian Johnson lives in two worlds: the world of skateboarding and the world of art,” they write. “Yet assuming that individuals are so quantifiable, we must include the world of jazz- one that intersects Ian’s previous two. His works carry the intensity of low double bass vibrations coupled with a skateboard underfoot, all in a dynamic graphic style. They echo the soulful bellowing of Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington send us deep into the cradle of contemporary music.” Read the whole interview from White Walls here…
