About the Item
Eric Cruikshank is a highly regarded Scottish abstract artist known for his minimalist and Color Field paintings that distill the emotive qualities of the Scottish landscape into luminous fields of color.
Cruikshank's distinctive minimalist practice was forged at the Edinburgh College of Art (ECA), graduating in 1997. This formative period positioned him within a generation of Scottish artists who synthesized the country's traditional figurative heritage with global currents of conceptual abstraction. Cruikshank immediately declared the Scottish landscape not as a subject for literal representation, but as a conceptual and emotional starting point for his exploration.
Technique and Concept
Working in Edinburgh, Cruikshank’s signature reductive technique involves layering and subtraction to eliminate all trace of the artist's hand, creating surfaces that appear to generate light from within. His objective is to capture the sensation and memory of a place using a systematically derived "objective palette."
This rigorous process forces the viewer's full attention onto the chromatic field, resulting in meditative works that are both intellectually rigorous and visually ethereal. Cruikshank is a recipient of the prestigious Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant (2009).

Sublimation printing on recycled polyester fabric stretched over wooden stretchers
These pieces are created by fading and changing old photographs from archives of Utrecht, the city Lennard works from and where he spent his childhood. Through subliminal transfer on textile that is made with recycled plastic, he creates a soft work where the colors get all the attention. For the viewer, this gives the opportunity to be constantly shifting their perspective over the gradients.
