Estuary
Abstract Expressionism
Abbot Hall Art Gallery
Graham Sutherland is best known as a war artist during the Second World War and for his designs for Coventry Cathedral. His early works were almost all etchings and engravings and his first landscape paintings date from the mid 1930s. Painted in early peacetime, this semi-abstract landscape is more optimistic in mood than some of the scenes of desolation he painted. The forms have been simplified and colours intensified, especially the salmon-coloured sky.
Graham Vivian Sutherland (1903 – 1980)
Graham Vivian Sutherland var en betydelig britisk maler og grafiker kjent for sin distinkte stil som forente engelsk landskapsmaleri med surrealistiske trender og ble en av Storbritannias mest innflytelsesrike moderne kunstnere. Hans ikoniske Coventry Cathedral-tapet og hans ekspressive bilder av Pembrokeshire er spesielt viktige verk.
