    Douglas Haynes Split Diamond Paintings to Present 1978 –2011 Douglas Haynes Split Diamond Paintings to Present 1978 –2011 James Rot tman Fin eArt www.jamesrottmanfineart.com [email protected] 416-893-5784 Douglas Haynes Split Diamond Paintings to Present Douglas Haynes works have challenged and engaged his audience for over five decades as a celebrated senior Canadian artist. This exhibition, curated by James Rottman Fine Art, features the Split Diamond series of the late 1970’s, the Toledo series works from the 1990’s and more recent works up to 2011. Haynes’ Split Diamond paintings are a highlight of this exhibition. When Doug allowed me to represent and exhibit his work in Toronto, I was ecstatic. I have always been a huge fan of his works and own a number of his works in my own inventory. However, the fun really began when our agreement was finalized. I then found myself with the opportunity to view forty years of works produced by a nationally celebrated artist. What a thrill! One by one the paintings were being pulled off their racks for me to view. My objective was to become more familiar with his large body of work, as well as choose fifteen or so of my favourite works for the exhibition. It was amazing to see the depth, the evolution and the originality of Doug’s work in the scope of Canadian art. When Haynes works were being pulled off the racks I immediately recognized the beauty and importance of these large format works from the late 1970’s in to the early 1980’s, known as the “Split Diamond Paintings”.

Urquhart’s creativity in his most recent work continues to be provocative, challenging and acutely fine tuned. The recent works in this exhibition are mysterious and thoughtful, hallmarks of his work throughout his long, celebrated career. In this series of hand coloured etchings created in 2017, Tony explores the ideas of metamorphosis and immortality through hinting at comparative illustrations of the anatomy, physiology and brain structure of prehistoric cats and humans. What questions does Urquhart raise in this series of etchings? The unique hand coloured etchings in the series appear to build on and subsequently further develop ideas through the series. When asked to explain the intent of these etchings Tony takes a moment to respond and states that he is really not sure how to answer except to say that Goya has always influenced his work. Urquhart’s creativity in his most recent work Often, Tony needs to reflect for a period of time continues to be provocative, challenging and before he can provide rigorous answers about even acutely fine tuned.

    Edmonton Arts Council - Public Art TITLE YEAR MEDIUM AT_A_GLANCE Mariposa 2005 Sculpture Steel sculpture that captures the grace of both a butterfly and matador Immense Mode 2009 Sculpture A two-storeys tall pair of legs with brown shoes and black and white stockings made from hand- made bricks. Page 1 of 728 09/27/2021 Edmonton Arts Council - Public Art MATERIAL INSTALLATION_ADDRESS DESCRIPTION mild steel Borden Art Park Mariposa is the Spanish word for butterfly and also refers to a particular stance adopted by a matador in the bullfight. As with many of Peter Hide’s sculptures, the image of the piece cannot be pinned down to one literal interpretation. Hide states, “Sculpture is, perhaps, the most literal of the arts, and for it to become a stimulus to imagination and feeling it has to overcome its literality. As an abstract sculptor one way I can achieve this is by using an ambiguous image or a succession of images that tend to cancel each other out.” Hand-carved bricks, glass tile 111 Street and 51 Avenue Immense Mode is an immediately recognizable work. Made from 42,000 pounds of brick and mortar, the sculpture is an expression of whimsy, which, at 20 feet tall, demands your attention. Red Deer-based artists Dawn Detarando and Brian McArthur imagined the legs to represent the Page 2 of 728 09/27/2021 Edmonton Arts Council - Public Art ARTIST_NAME ARTIST_WEBSITE Peter Hide Dawn Detarando and Bryan McArthur http://www.voyagertile.ca/ Page 3 of 728 09/27/2021 Edmonton Arts Council - Public Art ARTIST_BIO IMAGE_01 IMAGE_02 http://edmontonpublicart.ca/asset s/media/art/8f189f8a-cd62-44d5- b6c6- bbb0b9acd47d.JPG.1000x667_q 85.jpg This artist does not currently have a bio in our http://edmontonpublicart.ca/asset http://edmontonpublicart.ca/asset system.

  • City Hall Art Guide a Guide to Art in City Hall
    city hall art guide A guide to art in City Hall Public art is a key component in the attractiveness and identity of a city. It demonstrates the character of communities, strengthens the local economy through an investment in the arts, increases livability, and is a reflection of a progressive municipality. This guide explores the public art pieces from the City of Edmonton’s public art collection, located inside and outside City Hall. Paintings, sculptures, photography, print-making, textile, and other art forms can be found in the collection. How was the art chosen? While a few pieces have been in the collection for an extended period, many of the pieces that comprise the current collection were commissions or direct purchases for the opening of City Hall under the City’s Percent for Art Policy that was established in 1991. The Percent for Art policy ensures that when the City undertakes construction on a project that will be accessible to the public, one percent of the eligible construction budget is allocated to the acquisition of art that enriches the city and is accessible to everyone. Fifty-two of the original artworks were chosen by specifically formed committees, which provided recommendations for purchases to City Council. Members of the committees included representatives from the City, the community, City Hall’s architectural firm, the Alberta art community and the Alberta Foundation for the Arts. 2 Additionally, eight sites were selected throughout City Hall to receive custom-designed art. Of the hundreds of artists from across the province that applied, the following eight artists received commissions: • Douglas Haynes – Promise of Dusk and To Morning Light • Glenn Guillet – Ultima Thule • Petronella Overes – One • Wendy Toogood – Edmonton: Aspects of History • Hilary Prince – There is a River • Mitsu Ikemura – Madrigal • Judy Armstrong – Passages of Time (A Survey of Edmonton History) • Isla Burns – Caravel Several new additions to the City Hall collection have been acquired since the building’s opening.
