Jasper Johns

Jasper Johns, Jr. was born on 15th May, 1930 in Augusta, Georgia, United States. He is an American painter and drawer. He was with Robert Rauschenberg at the root of American Pop Art. He painted complete series representing flags, figures or targets on canvas.

Consequently, his subjects were basically daily life, utensils, cutlery or tin cans, treated as spare parts that he included in his work. False Start which was sold for 80 million dollars, is the most expensive painting of any living artist.
