Noah Jemisin, 2022<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Noah Jemisin was born in Birmingham, AL and obtained an MFA degree from University of Iowa, in 1974. His extensive travels in Africa, Europe and\u00a0 Asia over the years have helped him to develop an approach to life and art that enables him to synthesize into a distinct and dynamic whole the various components of his identity and create work that strives tomake meaning of his personal history as well as the ambiguities and contradictions of contemporary culture. There is a great deal of critical experience, of knowledge and admiration of art historical precedents in his work as well as an
\never sensitive deftly balanced interaction between modernism\u2019s formal concern\u2019s with a belief in the emotive potential of painting.
