John Fraser

John Fraser combines light, space and quotidian objects in ways that blend Western and Eastern artistic approaches. In so doing, he creates a wholly contemporary aesthetic that explores formal and material involvement. Fraser’s quiet and restrained vision results in refined, meditative works that contain an intensity of feeling in the seemingly simple, elegant, abstract forms. The artist has exhibited his work internationally in solo and group shows, and his work is in permanent collections of numerous museums throughout the U.S., including in the Cincinnati Art Museum, the Mississippi Museum of Art and the Sioux City Art Center. The recipient of several Illinois Arts Council grants and an Arts Midwest/NEA Regional Visual Arts Fellowship, Fraser’s art is also included in public collections of corporations such as Benziger Winery, Deloitte & Touche, Citicorp Services, Merrill Lynch and Saks Fifth Avenue.
