James Castle/John Joseph Mitchell

Philip Martin Gallery is pleased to present “James Castle/John Joseph Mitchell,” an exhibition featuring more than sixty works by two American masters of intimate scale separated by generations, geographies and backgrounds: legendary self-taught artist James Castle (1899–1977) and contemporary painter and printmaker John Joseph Mitchell (b. 1989 in Somers Point, NJ). The exhibition features works-on-paper, sculptural constructions and a handmade book by James Castle alongside paintings, monotypes and framed pastel-on-box-lid constructions by John Joseph Mitchell.

The limited run exhibition catalog, "James Castle / John Joseph Mitchell," features 35 full-color artwork images, detail shots, essay and a short interview conversation with Alex Baker and John Joseph Mitchell on the work of landmark artist James Castle (1899-1977). The exhibition features works-on-paper, sculptural constructions and a handmade book by James Castle alongside paintings, monotypes and framed pastel-on-box-lid constructions by John Joseph Mitchell (b. 1989, Somers Point, NJ).
