Jon Imber (1950-2014) was an American artist who experimented with different influences, styles and subject matter all his life. From figurative painting to landscapes and abstraction, Phil Allen, a New York City-based artist will introduce us to Jon's passion for art making and its ability to create transformative experiences—his lasting legacy.

Imber’s work is in numerous collections including the MFA Boston, Houston Museum of Fine Arts, New Orleans Museum of Art and many more. During the last two years of his life, after he was diagnosed with ALS, Imber taught himself to paint with his left hand. He was the subject of the feature length documentary titled Imber's Left Hand, released in 2014, which was directed by Richard Kane.
