About the Item

A simple, yet dynamic composition. Blue, green and yellow - colour is used sparingly in this collage, and to great effect. The assemblage is mounted without glass, but within a frame. Could be framed with glass if preferred. Otto Donald Rogers (1935 - 2019) was born in in Kerrobert, Saskatchewan and resided in Prince Edward County, Ontario, where he settled after returning from 10 years living in Haifa, Israel. For almost 30 years, Otto taught at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, from 1959 – 1988, after receiving his Master’s in Fine Art from the University of Wisconsin. Otto was instrumental in sustaining the Emma Lake Workshops, which, for several generations, has provided a meeting point for some of North America’s most respected visual artists, among them Jack Shadbolt, Helen Frankenthaler, Barnet Newman, Jules Olitski, Kenneth Noland and Otto himself. Otto was considered one of Canada’s senior abstract painters and his work is included in nearly every major collection in the country, including: the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Beaverbrook Art Gallery, Fredericton, Canada Council art Bank, the Art Gallery of Hamilton, the Art Gallery of Windsor, McKenzie Art Gallery, Regina, Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, the National Gallery of Canada. Internationally, his work can be found in the National Gallery of Iceland, Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, to name a few.

  • Water to Land
    By Milly Ristvedt
    Located in Bloomfield, ON
    This intimately scaled watercolour grid is a quiet contemplation of color: washed charcoal, blue, cyan, kelp green, lime and white. The poetic title may hint at the literal ratio of water to land in the world that is represented through color in this elegant artwork. Milly Ristvedt, RCA, began her career in Toronto in 1964 after studies with Takao Tanabe at the Vancouver School of Art. At 24, her work was included in the Centennial Exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario...

  • Odyssey - bright, bold, colourful, abstract expressionist, acrylic on paper
    By Adam Cohen
    Located in Bloomfield, ON
    This highly gestural and drip composition on paper balances a kaleidoscope of colour -- grape, magenta, orange, gold, green -- with areas of black and grey. It is a muscular explosion inspired by the classic Greek poem, the Odyssey, which charts the journey of hero Odysseus home to Ithaca after the 10 year Trojan war. This work on paper is currently unframed. However, it can be mounted on panel and framed or framed behind glass. Adam Cohen born in New Jersey in 1959, studied with artist Lilian Marzell, a friend of Willem de Kooning. Cohen earned his BFA at Philadelphia's Tyler School of Art at Temple University which included a year of painting in Rome. Returning to New York he studied at the School of Visual Arts, the Arts Students League and Parsons School of Design. Cohen has exhibited in Italy, Holland, New Jersey, New York and Ontario. His work is in numerous private collections. In 2015, he was awarded the International Art Prize Giuseppe Gambino...
