I am British artist based in Brussels since 1995. I completed my fine art degree in the United Kingdom in 1988  as a painter , photographer and sculptor .  I won a travel scholarship awarded to a single student in 1988  in order to study cultures outside of Europe : I travelled to the USA & Canada  and then to Australia & Papua  new guinea  and from there to Japan & South Korea . I documented the entire trip by drawing , photography and writing . I returned to Europe subsequently living in London , Paris and Holland  where I worked and also kept my art practice alive by any means possible . I was invited to exhibit in Brussels in 1995 at the Philiup Morris institute and then at the British embassy in Brussels . On the success of both these exhibition i relocated to Belgium , found work and a living /studio space in the oldest artiqt city in Belgium where I am still based . I have all manner of exhibitions : private , corporate and in galleries both solo and joint shows .  My artwork is in private , corporate collections throughout Europe and in the United states and Canada.

 

Démarche artistique

My subject matter is an emotional response to observations of the everyday world : people, objects and landscape. I hope my artwork evokes similar emotions in the viewer that I feel: tenderness, longing, fascination for the world. A love of the complex and intimate beauty that painting creates. Paintings are based on observational drawings, my own photographic and film archive as well as anonymous films and snapshots found by chance. A multi-layered approach in the painting process means the image is further edited and changed: the original can be unrecognisable, virtually invisible or a ghost-like remain, an echo. The finished painting is a suggestive composite with an open-ended, multifaceted reading.

My website showcases some of my work : paintingts large and small ; some photography as well as figurative & abstract work on paper :www.anthony-oliver.com
