James Nares

A definitive survey of James Nares’s multifaceted career, this monograph brings together his striking paintings and experimental films, tracing his evolution from a key figure in New York’s No Wave scene to a celebrated painter known for his sweeping, gestural brushwork. Designed in close collaboration with the artist and in partnership with Pandiscio Green, the book reflects Nares’s deep engagement with motion, time, and physicality. Featuring never-before-published works and essays by Glenn O’Brien, Amy Taubin, and Ed Halter, James Nares captures the artist’s singular vision, where art and movement become one.
