figuration

*Antony Williams, the coolness of being near another warm person

figuration

Like Wyeth and Freud, William’s compositional arrangements of detached figures delivered with subtly exaggerated marks make our encounters with his subjects highly intimate, yet austere.

*Susanne Kühn, dreaming in colour

figuration

Stunning imagery. I really love the contrast between the architecture and the body, combined with the focused expressions worn by the figures. Kühn’s pictorial repertoire deserves the attention that her fellow German figurative contemporaries have received!

*Oscar Mellor, concrete softness

figuration

Mellor’s dreamlike imagery is sensually uncanny

*John Baldessari, fractured figuration

figuration

I’ve always been intrigued by Baldessari’s pop-like aesthetic, mingled with bleakly romantic figurative gestures.

*Ridley Howard, banal love and other queries

figuration

I love how charged Howard’s images are while so simplistic

*Matthew Cerletty, Ambivalent Beauty

figuration

Isolation, longing, indifference..Cerletty’s imagery convicts us of our own loneliness

*James Rielly, two-gaze

figuration

I am so curious about artists such as Rielly, with whom I share an affinity for double-renderings of people.
