Jasper Johns' 1969 "Flag (Moratorium)" is one of the most important symbols of the anti-Vietnam war movement. While the flag is the most important and recognizable emblem of America, Johns subverts the image’s inherent optimism through a series of unexpected details: the army green color of the stripe, the agent orange hue of the square, and the single white bullet hole in the center of the piece. The piece takes the ultimate symbol of patriotism and distorts it into something uncomfortable. "Flag (Moratorium)" was  commissioned by Leo Castelli and published by the Committee Against the War in Vietnam.

Prior to 1969’s "Flag (Moratorium)", Jasper Johns was already well-known for his use of symbols. His most famous works up until this point were his iconic target paintings. Johns' artwork drew influence from a variety of artistic schools including pop art, neo-dada, and minimalism. His use of symbols and concrete images is considered by many to be a critique of the popular abstract expressionist movement of the time, which was more concerned with the physical act of art than any recognizability of the finished product.

"Flag (Moratorium)" is an offset lithograph in colors on wove paper from an edition of 300. It is signed on the lower right and includes a gallery certificate of authenticity.

Please note that digital renderings and photographs may feature frames, plinths, or other display staging for illustrative purposes only.

Presentation

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.
