Jim Gaylord (born 1974) is an American artist living and working in New York.[1] His abstract works are often based on imagery from contemporary film and television.[2] Combining stills from transitory cinematic moments, he transposes them to extract new compositions, which are then used as the bases for paintings and gouache on paper collages.[3]

Gaylord was born in Washington, North Carolina. He received a degree in Film from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in 1997, and an MFA from the University of California at Berkeley in 2005.[4] From 2003 – 2005 he was also a member of the San Francisco band Vetiver.[5]

Gaylord’s work has been exhibited internationally and is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York,[6] the West Collection[7] and the Progressive Art Collection.
