Jason Middlebrook (born 1966) is an American visual artist whose work includes public art, installation, sculpture, drawing and painting. He is most known for public mural and mosaic projects, such as Brooklyn Seeds (2012, commissioned by MTA Arts & Design), and his body of "plank sculptures", rough-hewn slabs of hardwood onto which he paints intricate, mainly abstract patterns. His art explores relationships between the natural and human-made environments, merging geometric abstraction and organic materials and motifs, as well as conceptualism and craftsmanship.
Middlebrook's art belongs to the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New Museum, Whitney Museum, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, among others. He has exhibited at the latter four venues, MASS MoCA, Site Santa Fe and the Buffalo AKG Art Museum. After being based in Brooklyn, Middlebrook lives and works in Hudson, New York.
