This body of work traces the artist's trajectory back to his early days in Los Angeles, where he worked alongside painter Laura Owens and sculptor Matt Johnson. It was during this formative period that Wood's distinct visual language began to take shape: a language that would come to define his mature practice. Drawing played a central role in Wood's process, serving as both preparatory sketches for his collages and paintings, as well as independent works of art in their own right. At the core of Wood's prolific output lies a deep appreciation for the handmade—a reverence reflected in his engagement with found photographs, manual projectors and half-erased pencil sketches. Although rendered in a flattened perspective, the resulting tableaux are deeply layered, revealing traces of the artist's hand, miscellaneous references and the transformative nature of various artistic media. The comprehensive catalog features an essay by Douglas Fogle and a conversation between Laura Owens and the artist. The Los Angeles-based artist Jonas Wood (born 1977) creates paintings, drawings and prints, which mostly comprise intricate still lifes and interior domestic scenes. Throughout his compositions, the artist draws from art history, memory, and the people, objects and interiors that comprise his life. His work is boldly colored, detailed and graphic, and often features basketballs, ceramics and lush plants.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49753748242705,"sku":"NGR9781949172997","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51060239073553,"sku":"NIN9781949172997","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52141839450385,"sku":"NLS9781949172997","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1949172996.jpg?v=1750900818"},{"product_id":"jonas-wood-portraits-book-jonas-wood-9781942607403","title":"Jonas Wood: Portraits","description":"Contemporary painter Jonas Wood’s exuberantly colorful portraits: an uncanny blend of realism and abstraction  The latest book from Los Angeles-based artist Jonas Wood (born 1977) follows the style of his previous publications Sports Book and Interiors, this time taking up the subject of portraiture. Portraits compiles the many works completed over Wood’s career, done in a variety of media, and with a range of subjects and sitters, including paintings of artist friends, self-portraits, intimate familial moments in domestic interiors and the artist’s own cultural and sports heroes, from basketball players and boxers to Philip Guston and Pablo Picasso—though Wood’s esteem for these figures is beside the point, as he notes: \"I don’t depict only those athletes who have meaning for me. Sometimes it is about the images being interesting, or that I like the color of the card, and sometimes it is about loving the athlete.\" Wood’s subjects are presented in bright light with lively color, graphic flatness and minute detail rendered impeccably.   Jonas Woods: Portraits reveals an intimate look at the life of an artist at the forefront of contemporary painting.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51514982695185,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51514983088401,"sku":"NGR9781942607403","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52147604324625,"sku":"NLS9781942607403","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1942607407.jpg?v=1751219926"},{"product_id":"sports-cards-book-jonas-wood-9782930777610","title":"Sports Cards","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51751786938641,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51751786971409,"sku":"NGR9782930777610","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9782930777610.jpg?v=1751217820"},{"product_id":"jonas-wood-interiors-book-jonas-wood-9780983362241","title":"Jonas Wood: Interiors","description":"In this book, Los Angeles-based painter Jonas Wood (born 1977) explores his longstanding fascination with intimate interiors, such as his childhood home, his studio and other spaces in his everyday life.
