Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
Found b&w real photo postcard with foreign stamp and a postmark of August 17, 1910. The card was blown up, colored (prisma marker, ink, pen) and mounted on a page from a French ABC children's book--X for la boxe. This was then glued to a reworked page from an early 20th century book on boxing. The piece is 8x7. The boxer is James (Jim) Jackson Jeffries, a U.S. heavyweight some consider the best boxer ever. He was nicknamed The Boilermaker.

From the New York Times:"Peter J. Ketchum knows how to get the viewer's attention. Shown widely around the country, his pictures commingle colors, people, situations, commentary and mediums in a manner that is provocative, funny and to the point. Attempts to pigeonhole the work as Pop, folk, cartoon, mixedmedia, collage, anthropomorphic, or merely strange tend to fall short of the mark!" Five works were included in 35 Artists of North America, curated by Thomas Krens, former director of the Guggenheim Museum. Ketchum received a degree in fine arts from Colby College and did additional study at the School of Visual Arts in NYC. He studied privately with George Baer. The New York City based artist's work is in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institute, The Norfolk History Museum and Colby. It has been shown at the Brooklyn Museum, The Bushnell, The Springfield Museum of Fine Art, and The Discovery Museum. The artist has shown in solo and group shows in Boston and NYC, including Exit Art, Lumina, SOHO 20, HERE, the Williamsburg (Brooklyn) Art Center, Real Artways,the Charter Oak Cultural Center and TNC Gallery. Curators and/or gallery owners who have shown his work include Ethan and Ivan Karp (OK Harris, NYC), Susan Dunne (Pace NYC), John Klein (The Aldrich Museum) and Matthew Druitt (The Guggenheim.) www.peterjketchum.com www.saatchionline.com/PeterKetchum
