Gregg Simpson: Out of the Woods

November 18 – December 10, 2011

 

Gregg Simpson has been a fixture of the Vancouver art scene since the 1960s.  He combines surrealism and abstraction to create a fusion of figure and landscape which arises directly from the visceral process of mark making and automatism.  The exhibition features large scale paintings from three of his recent series; Island Passages, Improvised Landscapes and Personal Totems.
