About the Item
Greg Curnoe (1936-1992) was a highly revered artist, bookmaker, and competitive cyclist based in London, Ontario, but beloved across the country. He represented Canada in the 1976 Venice Biennale.
Unwavering in his allegiance to the Canadian/local art scene, Curnoe led the London Regionalism movement alongside fellow artists such as Jack Chambers, Tony Urquhart, and Murray Favro. Together, they championed their hometown of London, Ontario by focusing on local life in their art, activism, and loyalty.
Curnoe’s lifetime passion for sport had a large presence in his practice and iconography. Capturing subject matter from life in southern Ontario, Curnoe was devoted to depicting personal objects and experiences from his day-to-day life, inspiring a generation of artists to do the same. While Curnoe could be considered a second-generation Pop artist, there was something more personal and intimate in both his approach and artwork.
Watercolour is a great medium when on-the-go, something that Curnoe enjoyed in his active lifestyle. His watercolours are immersive, transporting viewers not only to the place but also the feeling that he was experiencing at the time of creation.
Ducharme Beach is on Lake Huron in the town of Saint Joseph, just north of London, Ontario. Resembling a color field painting this work is an evocative figurative scene; A windsurfer glides across the upper layer of the tranquil water, trees stand firmly rooted on land, and the clouds hold the soft, dancing sunlight over the lake's expanse. Color fields are carefully laid so they don't overlap excessively, except with Curnoe wants them to, creating emphasis and outline in his forms.
Greg Curnoe’s works can be found in numerous public and private collections across Canada. The most significant holdings are at Museum London, the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, and Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto (which also holds the artist's archives.)
