![]() Gordon Cheape started painting at the age of 40 during a stay in Switzerland, inspired by love, new surroundings and a long held desire to paint and draw.
In 2002, he decided to become a full time artist and subsequently in 2003 was accepted as a Professional Member of the Scottish Society of Artists. On his first entry for their Annual Exhibition at the RSA, he won the Gallery Heinzel Prize. For more information about Gordon Cheape, please click here. |
![]() "Architect and artist Giorgio Granozio is trying to get to grips with nature using the mathematical tools of his profession. His basis is Fibonacci, who proved that the things of nature, though seemingly random, actually contain a correspondence to the Golden Ratio. The works in this show seem to detail his process of working - cut-out shapes imposed on photographs of tree branches or water, CAD drawings, and the translation of these same shapes into abstract paintings. And here an intriguing change takes place. The precision of the computer is lost and replaced by the painted line, a line which is, ironically, more natural. In his abstract paintings, which focus on simple geometrical shapes, he takes his quest one step further. If all of nature is underwritten by geometrical structures, what of those natural qualities we possess of thought, instinct, imagination? The paintings seem to come from the place where the two meet." Susan Mansfield - The Scotsman
