About the Item

A more literal reference to window constructions is in the recent work of Luc Hoekx. Transparent panels made of plexiglass are painted on both sides with colored surfaces. Front and back are visible at the same time, but also overlap in different places and in this way create obstructions in our way of looking. The transparency of Plexiglas often disappears to make way for the transparency of paint layers. Front and back are concepts that can be exchanged. They are equally important for the final image. Some color areas are very tightly painted, while with other surfaces a clear brushwork remains visible. A layered story unfolds for the viewer that can never be completely transparent. It is a story full of overlaps and poetic nuances, the story of a visual language that can only be visually dissected.

Red and Orange #1 - bright, abstract, minimalist, acrylic on plexiglass
By David Cantine
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Curated circles of silver, black, tangerine orange, and cherry red define the dove grey ground of this square minimalist acrylic painting on plexiglass. The areas between the shapes are completed with custard yellow and maroon. This work comes framed. Framed dimensions are approximately 20.5 x 20.5 inches. Cantine's work is a poetic and intellectual exploration of a pictorial problem, color as structure which has infinite variations. Cantine was quoted in the Alberta Biennial of Contemporary Art 2000: "For the past 26 years, I have painted essentially the same still life, which began as a pair of apples and its shadow, and evolved under pressure of color into the present imagery." Cantine may be referred to as a post-minimalist, a term coined by Robert Pincus-Witten in 1971 to describe work with a minimalist tendency but that uses modest materials and aims towards a pure formalist aesthetic. David Cantine is a senior Canadian painter who has been exploring the still life for many years. Cantine was born in Jackson...
