Main Street Projects presents Jonathan Paul Jackson: "Colorways," an exhibition of new artworks from the artist and an accompanying site-specific installation in the “Windows on Main.” Jackson’s artwork pulls the the roots of visual communication through time and into the contemporary context.

“Colorway," a term which refers to the particular combination of colors applied to a sneaker, in this instance refers to the ancient practice of applying pigment to religious sculptures and statuary – a practice seen in the earliest known and documented cultures, world-wide — and to this artist’s practice of reimagining artifacts from antiquity in vivid color.
