Juxtaposing varied modes of representation, Kearns presents a visual mash-up that highlights how certain iconography expresses American belief structures. In compositions rife with conflict, questioning, contradictions and intrigue, Kearns depicts iconic figures sourced from Western popular culture engaged in perpetual power struggles, though it&rsquo;s never clear who is winning. His characters fluctuate between protagonist and antagonist in a narrative that reflects our own constructions of reality &ndash;&nbsp;a matrix of thought where time and space are condensed and presented in a single, tense moment.<\/p>\n<p>Jerry Kearns has exhibited internationally across the Americas, Europe, and Asia since the 1980s. He has been featured many times in&nbsp;<em>The New York Times, Art and Auction, ARTnews,&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;<em>Artforum,&nbsp;<\/em>among others. His paintings are included in many public and private collections, including the Museum of Modern Art (New York), National Galerie (Berlin), Brooklyn Museum (New York), the Art Institute of Chicago, Whitney Museum of American Art (New York), The Norton Family Collection (Los Angeles), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Queensland Art Gallery (Queensland, Australia).<\/p>\n<p>In the interview a show was mentioned at <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/134946383\">Joe&rsquo;s Pub by Nora, that can seen here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8060\" src=\"https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/betweentime.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/betweentime-1.jpg 700w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/betweentime-2.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/betweentime-3.jpg 696w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/betweentime-4.jpg 423w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Between Time, 84in x 84in, Acrylic on Canvas, 2017&nbsp; Photo Credit: Stephanie Berger.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8057 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/jerry-1024x954.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/jerry.png 1024w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/jerry-1.png 300w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/jerry-2.png 768w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/jerry-3.png 696w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/jerry-4.png 451w, https:\/\/thebirthofeverything.com\/authorsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/jerry-5.png 1027w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Two On a Match, 84 x 90, acrylic on canvas, 2017&nbsp;Photo Credit: Stephanie Berger.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jerry Kearns Jerry Kearns&rsquo;&nbsp;&ldquo;psychological pop&rdquo;&nbsp;paintings represent a multidimensional quantum universe.
