This is the most thorough and detailed monograph on the artwork of
Raymond Jonson. He is one of many artists of the first half of the
twentieth-century who demonstrate the richness and diversity of an
under-appreciated period in the history of American art.
Visualizing the spiritual was one of the fundamental goals of early
abstract painting in the years before and during World War I.
Artists turned to alternative spirituality, the occult, and
mysticism, believing that the pure use of line, shape, color, light
and texture could convey spiritual insight. Jonson was steadfastly
dedicated to this goal for most of his career and he always
believed that modernist and abstract styles were the most effective
and compelling means of achieving it.
