Jack Bush是加拿大抽象派画家，出生于安大略多伦多。他的绘画与色彩场运动和后绘画抽象有关。
在他早期，布什受到查尔斯·康福特和七人组的影响。在20世纪30年代，他经营商业艺术，并在夜间，继续他的研究在安大略艺术学院。布什和当时的加拿大艺术家一样，受到欧洲主要影响的庇护。在观看了美国抽象表现主义者在纽约的作品后，布什的画布发生了巨大的变化。
布什在1950年代发展了他的作品和抽象方法。他是画家11的成员，画家11是威廉·罗纳德在1953年创立的促进禁欲的团体。在加拿大绘画艺术，很快被美国艺术评论家克莱门特·格林伯格的艺术所鼓舞。最初，格林伯格成为布什的导师，并鼓励他改进调色板、技巧和方法。由于格林伯格和39的指导，布什与色彩场画紧密地联系在一起。布什与Jules Olitski、Kenneth Noland以及Anthony Caro等色彩领域的艺术家成了朋友。随着《画家十一》于1960年解散，布什继续前行，最终成为来自这个团体的更成功的艺术家之一。
杰克·布什在1967年S&o Paulo艺术双年展上代表加拿大，1976年，安大略省美术馆参观了他作品的大型回顾。他于1977去世。他的儿子特里是一位获奖曲棍作家，以演唱《也许明天》和《小流浪汉》的主题而闻名。

Art Movement :Abstract Expressionism,Post-Painterly Abstraction
Jack Bush was a Canadian abstract painter, born and deceased in Toronto, Ontario. His paintings are associated with the Color Field movement and Post-painterly Abstraction.
In his early stages, Bush was influenced by the work of Charles Comfort and the Group of Seven. During the 1930s, he ran a commercial art business and, by night, furthered his studies at the Ontario College of Art. Bush, like other Canadian artists of the time, was sheltered from major European influences. After seeing the work of the American Abstract Expressionists in New York City, Bush's canvases changed dramatically.
Bush developed his work and approach to abstraction through the 1950s. He was a member of Painters Eleven, the group founded by William Ronald in 1953 to promote abstract painting in Canada, and was soon encouraged in his art by the American art critic Clement Greenberg. Critical at first, Greenberg became a mentor to Bush and encouraged him to refine his palette, technique, and approach. As a result of Greenberg's guidance, Bush became closely tied to Color Field Painting. Bush became friends with artists associated with color-field like Jules Olitski, Kenneth Noland and also Anthony Caro. As Painters Eleven disbanded in 1960, Bush moved on, and in the end became one of the more successful artists to come from this group.
Jack Bush represented Canada at the 1967 São Paulo Art Biennial, and in 1976 the Art Gallery of Ontario toured a large retrospective of his work. He died in 1977. His son Terry was an award winning jingle writer, best known for singing "Maybe Tomorrow", the theme for the The Littlest Hobo.
Canada Post honored Jack Bush with a Canadian postage stamp and a souvenir sheet released on March 20, 2009. The stamps featured his 1964 painting, Striped Column and his 1977 painting Chopsticks.
