Regen Projects announces publication detailing thirty-five years of Jack Pierson's practice
Designed by Dorothée Perret. Printing and binding by Snel Grafics, Belgium.



LOS ANGELES, CA.- This volume celebrates and documents the career of pioneering New York–based artist Jack Pierson. Published on the occasion of Pierson’s tenth solo presentation with Regen Projects, Los Angeles, this full-color publication illustrates works produced over 35 years of the artist’s multidisciplinary practice. The publication follows the design of the exhibition, creating a personal sojourn through the artist’s career. Featuring a new contribution by Evan Moffitt that surveys the artist’s body of work in relation to queer cultural zeitgeists of the 1990s, a conversation between the artist and Andy Campbell, and an essay by Bruce Benderson, Less and more shines new light on Pierson’s oeuvre.

Designed by Dorothée Perret. Printing and binding by Snel Grafics, Belgium.

Jack Pierson (b. 1960, Plymouth, MA) earned a BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art in 1984. He gained early recognition for being the youngest founding member of the Five of Boston group, which included fellow classmates David Armstrong, Philip Lorca di Corca, Nan Goldin, and their friend Mark Morrisroe. Together their explorations in photography defined a generation of artists who came to prominence in the late 1980s.

Pierson’s work has been featured in solo exhibitions nationally and internationally including Museo Ettore Fico, Turin (2022); 5 Shows from the ‘90s, Aspen Art Museum (2017); OMG, Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford (2015); Centro de Arte Contemporáneo de Málaga (2009); Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin (2008); Regrets, Museum of Contemporary Art, Miami (2002); and the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago (1995); among others.

Work by the artist is held in prominent museum collections including The Baltimore Museum of Art; Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, MA; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY; Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Seattle Art Museum; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; and Yale University Art Gallery, New Haven, CT, among others.

Pierson is the creator of a celebrated artist book, Tomorrow’s Man, inspired by the famous bodybuilding magazine from the 1950s and ‘60s. Now in its sixth edition (Bywater Bros. Editions, 2022), the book has expanded into a number of curatorial projects for the artist. Other publications of his work include JACK PIERSON + BABY ROBERTS (EY! BOY COLLECTION, 2020); The Hungry Years (Damiani, 2017); Angel Youth (Charta, 2008); Desire/Despair (Rizzoli, 2006); and Every Single One of Them (Twin Palms, 2004); among others.

He lives and works in New York and Wonder Valley, CA.
