With a mastery of illumination that is distinctively his own, Bruce Woycik, in his latest body of work, effectively captures Vancouver, its scenes and seasons.
The cool, yet beautiful atmosphere of an overcast day, the intrinsic energy of spring, familiar landmarks in a rivalry of radiance and shadow - though tranquil in temperament, exude a mesmerizing underlying intensity.
"Segue comprises the elements of Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall to complete the cycle of the ...

This latest body of work is principally inspired by the distress and powerlessness that one sometimes feels in the face of human dramas. My intention is to honour those people who are willing to forget about their own needs and be available for others. In order to reach that place, I have chosen a theme often used in painting, that of the angel. I like what the angel represents – Love, Kindness, Compassion and Generosity. My intention is to evoke a state of heart through the idea of the ...

Renowned minimalist abstract painter MARCEL BARBEAU was born in Montreal in 1925 and went on to study painting at the Ecole du Meuble de Montreal with Jean-Paul Riopelle. Barbeau's abstract painting was greatly influenced by his participation in the automatists or "Quebec Modern Group" in the 1940's and 1950's. This important group of painters in Quebec believed in modernism and intellectual freedom, and they directly impacted Modern Art as we know it today. This intellectual freedom was espo ...

The vacuum I felt during my studies with regard to Iran's heritage in sculpture was gradually filled from other sources. With the advent of Islam sculpting had ended, but the concept of sculpture endured and infiltrated other three-dimensional objects. These soon became my models and my source of inspiration. If only I could breathe into them the spirit of our time, on the one hand, and, on the other, dispatch my Western sculpture training to oblivion, I would be on the right track. That is h ...
