One of the most intriguing artists to emerge in the 1990's, Jack Pierson has received critical acclaim for his work in a variety of media. His art is concerned with the grand themes of life-love, pain, desire, memory and mortality. Often grouped with fellow 'Boston School' artists, Nan Goldin, David Armstrong, Mark Morrisroe and Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Pierson works in a variety of mediums such as sculpture, language, photography, painting and installation. Pierson's primary medium is photography. He is especially interested in the photograph as a means to stimulate the imagination and fantasies of the viewer. His subject is America as paradise - a perfection that can be sought but never captured. Pierson records fragments of America's landscape - both urban and rural - exploring the seduction of lush, sexually charged locales such as Miami Beach, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas.

Pierson's work is found in major public collections, including Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL; CAPC Bordeaux, Bordeaux, France; Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, MA; Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, CA; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY; The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, TX; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, NY; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, MN; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY, and Yale University Art Gallery, New Haven, CT.

As of May 2022, Lisson Gallery represents Jack Pierson across London, New York and China, alongside his roster of galleries – Regen Projects, Thaddaeus Ropac and Xavier Hufkens.
