Artist Keith Jackson's New York Solo Debut

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Oct 25, 2024

Today is the opening of artist Keith Jackson's new show, his New York solo debut, at Charles Moffett. For much of his life, Jackson, who grew up in Missouri and now in lives in Kenosha, Wisconsin, worked as a building contractor. But in the last few years, he's dedicated himself to painting full-time. This new show, The Provocateurs, displays paintings inspired by Jackson's study of a 1939 sharecropper demonstration in Southeast Missouri, near where he was raised. Keith Jackson tells us more about his practice and the show, on view through November 30.
