Provenance:
Paul Petro Contemporary Art, Toronto
Notes:
Gary Evans’ extraordinary imagery projects scores of visual potential. Splintering smudges, saucers and shapes of colour appear alongside elements of the cityscapes and landscapes, creating complex representations and spatial havoc. The results are complicated images, fraught with contrasts that, in the hands of the artist, work to create an exciting visual dissonance. Evans graduated from the Ontario College of Art (Toronto, ON) and has exhibited his work across Canada and in Europe. Selections of his work can be found in the permanent collections of the Art Gallery of Kelowna (Kelowna, BC), Hart House (Toronto, ON), and a number of private and corporate collections. Evans is represented by Paul Petro Contemporary Art in Toronto.
Most realised prices include the Buyer's Premium of 18-25%, but not the HST/GST Tax.
