Dion Johnson (b.1975) is a Los Angeles-based artist who uses color to evoke the contemporary urban and natural landscape of southern California. Landscape and place drive Johnson’s work, taking cues from both the Washington Color School and California’s hard edge paintings.
“I want to create work that is reflective of how I see and experience color and light in our environment.
Recent exhibitions include shows at the De Buck Gallery, New York; Western Project, Los Angeles and Marty Walker Gallery, Dallas, and NOW-ISM at the Pizzuti Collection, Columbus.
