Jonathan Weinberg (born 1957) is an American artist and art historian.
Weinberg has been professor on the faculty of Yale's Department of the History of Art (1989–2001), a John Simon Guggenheim fellow,[1] Mills fellow at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Sterling fellow at the Clark Art Institute,[2] as well as scholar and artist-in-residence at the Getty museum and research center in Los Angeles.
Until recently he did not show some of the work that an unprejudiced, perhaps naive, observer like myself might regard as among his best: his sun-drenched little acrylics, for example, and his big watercolors, generous in scale and monumentally constructed.
How fundamentally New Yorkish that seems, distinguishing between the dual environments of its artists' lives, the beach where you relax, the city where all the tough stuff goes on.Weinberg has published widely.
"[3] Nochlin and others have noted that Weinberg's work is cogent while being extremely well written and researched; with none of the theory or jargon that has turned so many away from the academy.
