About the Item
A brilliant yellow sun peeks out behind hot pink, deep blue and contrasting black shapes in this abstract landscape by Calgary artist Aron Hill. This is one of a series of acrylic paintings they recently created. Conceptually, Hill’s work finds company in the art of famed modernist Jack Bush. The background color shifts and lightens toward the top of the work.
“In the last year I’ve become really comfortable with what I’m doing. I think I stopped asking art to do things it cannot do. I’ve stepped back and just said, ‘I’m going to do it!” Aron Hill
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 a primary colors and 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 this medium produces.
Aron 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. Aron Hill has exhibited internationally, occasionally lectures, and writes.
