Jonathan Quinn
Jon was the first real artist i met after moving to nyc's east village in 1983. he was a graduate of sva and tight with some of the group material art crowd and the fleshtones music scene. (new fleshtones book just out!!!) he put me in my first nyc art show. a one nighter group show he was putting together at club 57. jon was a conceptual painter then. he used painted pictures of the sea/sky as a symbol of dialectics. he soon moved into photography and film. we just spoke over the phone after a long hiatus. hes currently working on a masters in film history (i think thats what he said). pls look through his current photographic artworks "water." they are a great continuation of his painted work from the 80's and his film writing is quite good too. i brought him up to date with some of our mutual friends he hasnt seen in a while. he says hi.
