He also is the creator of an innovative collage technique that eliminates liquid adhesives from the collage assembly process. His technique is the subject of his book, ''Collage: A New Approach''. Talbot's works have been exhibited at The National Academy and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His artwork has represented the United States in exhibitions sponsored by the U. S. State Department as well as by the Smithsonian Institution. His works are included in permanent museum collections in United States, Canada, and Europe. His studio is in Warwick, New York. Every year Talbot schedules workshops that he conducts for artists who wish to study collage, his techniques, and related subjects.() They are hosted at various locations around the United States and some are free exhibits sponsored by local organizations. Talbot is best known for his collages and multi-dimensional collage-constructions, as well as, for his oils, watercolors, and etchings. ==Biography to 1970== Talbot is the son of artist, Helen Talbot, who exhibited in New York in the early 1930s, and he was raised on a family farm in upstate New York in Putnam County. A youthful portrait of Jonathan Talbot was painted by the noted artist and illustrator, Arthur Lidov, () and it appeared on the cover of the December 1947 issue of ''The American Mercury'' magazine. Shortly thereafter Talbot was enrolled in the Hessian Hills School founded by Elizabeth Moos, a notably progressive school in Croton-on-Hudson, New York, where the educational focus was on the arts. He spent many summers during the 1950s living in the village of Menemsha on Martha's Vineyard, an island which at that time, was the summer home of many artists and members of the creative arts. Painter Thomas Hart Benton, lyricist E. Y. "Yip" Harburg, the author of ''Brother Can you Spare a Dime'', and Peter Coyote, who would become an actor, were among the influences upon Talbot's early artistic efforts. Talbot's first creative efforts were in music. A self-taught musician, Talbot's musical career included performances at Carnegie Hall and Fillmore East as well as numerous other 1960s venues. He recorded two albums as leader of the ''New York Electric String Ensemble'', one for ESP-Disk and one for Columbia Records. In 1970 he married Marsha Goldstein, moved to San Francisco, and turned his talents toward the visual arts. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jonathan Talbot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
