About the Item
Pure white and bright red shapes float across the canvas in this dynamic series of four minimalist paintings by Aron Hill. Black shadows add depth to the spare compositions. Curated strings of yellow and magenta add movement and interest. Linen adds texture. The Calgary artist finds inspiration in the iconic minimalist paintings of modernists like Jack Bush. Each panel measures 30 x 24 inches.
“The idea of pureness in terms of colour and shape and that hard edge has always appealed to me.” Aron Hill
They obtained a BFA in Interdisciplinary Studies from the Alberta College of Art and Design and their MFA from Goldsmiths College, University of London in 2006. They have exhibited across Canada and in Dubai. Hill’s work is held in private and corporate collections.

Aron Hill
Aron Hill's practice is focused on a formalist type of painting that recalls aspects of minimalism and Color-Field paintings though with references to the figure throughout. They find conceptual company in the late modernist paintings produced particularly in Canada. The choice of primary colors and a restricted medium is a conscious restraint informed by Hill’s artistic influences such as Jack Bush and William Perehudoff. The work's graphic nature relies on the sheer flatness that this medium produces.
Hill currently lives and works in Calgary, Alberta. They graduated from Alberta College of Art and Design in 2000 with a BFA in Interdisciplinary studies. Hill then completed their MFA at Goldsmiths College, University of London. Hill has exhibited internationally, and occasionally lectures and writes.
