About the Item
This minimalist colourful painting is the landscape reimagined and features the image of a sun.
Aron Hill’s work is defined by a fresh, modern colour palette and simple, bold form—the signature style of renowned Canadian modernists like Jack Bush.
The Calgary-based artist often redefines the traditional landscape using hard-edge organic forms rendered in bright colours. In this piece, a bright orange sun—a recurring symbol for Hill that is symbolic of a ‘guiding light’ hangs in the sky above an arched deep pink shape that anchors the painting.
Curved yellow bands appear to emanate from the base drawing the viewer’s eye upward to the sun.
Four black ‘rock-like’ shapes sit stacked on one side of the canvas. For Hill, rocks are figurative and represent monument-like structures.
“These paintings use the recurring theme of rocks as both land markers and altars set against a seemingly empty space or landscape.” 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.
