“The punk works marked a significant transition in Johnson’s oeuvre. They allowed him to reconnect with painting, without loosing sight of his early conceptual practices, and to avoid the more simplistic rhetoric of the so-called return to figuration.” (Chris McCauliffe, Tim Johnson, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney, 2009, exh.cat. p.20)
