About The Artwork

Oil on paper Diptych (2 panels) Left: Red Deep on Ivory Black 2009 & Right: Ivory Black on Red Deep 2010 An important work in the Continuum series. Inspired by the "PosNeg" graphite diptych. This Red/Black Sym painting has two distinct linear structures in two colour layers, red and black. For the first time the structure was rotated and repeated on a separate sheet of paper in both colours and then superimposed with the other colour. The absorbed oil paint on paper created an appearance of a mat surface. The second layer of paint on paint, acted as a primer and retained a lustre, acutely apparent in the ghosting negative line between the two layers. Key white 'nodes' formed across the intersection points of the two layers of negative lines when both sections of white lines collide and form an accent point and it disorientated the space between the two layers. “ … It is this ability to take you, as a viewer on a visually transcendental journey that works so well for me, and that’s before you stop to consider the fact that these are extremely well executed paintings, done with, to use the Mike Kelley title: more love hours than can ever be repaid. The mark of the author is quietly evidenced in all of the paintings and drawings on show. ..."

English b.1964 Lives & works in Nottingham UK. Resident artist at PRIMARY Nottingham ... Recipient of the Pollock-Krasner Foundation Award ... Pre-Covid collaborate with the 2021 collective Turner Prize winner Grace McMurray, the Belfast based artist, for The Expanded Studio Project with PS2 in Belfast, Northern Ireland in 2019 "... Marek Tobolewski'’s work continues to entrance and mystify... CiS is the most impressive show of Tobolewski’s I have ever seen ... his artistic practice seems to be a never-ceasing journey along a single path, continually striving for new insights and perfections." Andrew Cooper-NVA Ed Drawing underpins my practice, it deals within both the formal process of abstraction today and its historical continuity. The ongoing Continuum series of works are concerned with spatial portals held within symmetry and reflection, of rotated and mirrored linear forms. The linear ’Syms’ are continually evolving and endlessly being reinvented … “I return to existing works, adjust structures and refine each individual flow of a line in an attempt to hold a balance between movement and stillness.”
