Artists and Artwork
This classic 1989 David Alexander pays homage to his Vancouver roots and specifically his interest in Emily Carr and Jack Shadbolt. Obsessed with exploring untouched landscapes and relying on his first-hand experience from the deep woods, Alexander's landscapes are visceral explorations of a specific environment. Physically painted with bold formal juxtapositions, Alexander expands on the tradition of western Canadian landscape painting and shares with us his very personal interpretation.
