Event Description : This exhibition centres around a new acquisition of works from the series Winter (2012),a sequence of seventy -five prints that represent a circular walk taken by the artist through the French countryside on a harsh but beautiful day.The prints absorb an electic range of influences,from 17th -century Dutch landscape painting to Street View on Google Maps,and are at the forefront of Opie's continued investigation into the experience of lanscape.The installation of these works creates a surrounding panorama that combines the rural landscape with slick architectural surfaces immersing the viewer in the purified essence of his experience.
One of the leading figures in contemporary art,for over three decades Julian Opie(b. 1958) has pushed the boundaries of portraiture,painting and sculpture,seeking to break down what he believes to be illogical barriers between the disciplines.He has developed an instantly recognisable and unique formal language through digital manipulation,reducing images to simplified forms of line and colour.Julian Opie graduated from Goldsmith's School of Art,London in 1982 where he studied under the British artist Michael Craig-Martin.He has gone on to show extensively including National Portrait Gallery,London(2011),IVAM,Valencia,Spain (2006),Neues Museum,Nuremberg,Germany (2003),Ikon Gallery,Birmingham ,UK(2001),Kunstverein Hannover,Germany (1994) and Instituteof Contemporary Arts,London(1985).
