About the Item
Aron Hill’s acrylic minimalist paintings are inspired interpretations of landscape.
For this Calgary-based artist, ‘landscape’ has been re-imagined in modern form with clean bold lines and fresh vibrant colours. Hill has long admired the iconic modernist work of Jack Bush and the masterful use of colour by French artists like Matisse. Central to much of their work-- a red and yellow sun viewed as a symbolic guiding light appears here in the corner of the canvas. Three yellow birds and three black rocks add significant detail—the rocks are seen as monumental altars. The ‘earth’ appears as a deep turquoise outlined in white and black providing dramatic contrast.
“Whether you like Matisse or not, the interest in pure colour I’ve always been fascinated by and drawn to. The idea of pureness in terms of colour and shape and that hard edge has always appealed to me.” Aron Hill
Aron Hill obtained a BFA in Interdisciplinary Studies from the Alberta College of Art and Design and an 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.
