JASON BENJAMIN  Australia    1971 -

The art of Jason Benjamin has had a meteoric rise with major exhibitions in Australia and overseas. Born in Melbourne, now based in Sydney, Benjamin has studied at Pratt Institute, New York, and exhibited in Tokyo, Hong Kong, London and New York. In 2002 Benjamin participated in Ken McGregor’s William Creek and Beyond expedition to Lake Eyre with nine other prominent Australian artists. His landscapes are portrayed in half-light, veiled by glazes that soften edges and impart a Caravaggioesque sense of chiaroscuro. Major collections include Art Bank, National Portrait Gallery Canberra, Maquarie Bank, Ballarat Art Gallery, along with numerous private collections.
