About the Item

Bill Bate was born in Liverpool in 1962 and is a graduate in Fine Art from the Central School of Art London (now known as Central Saint Martins)He works largely with oil and his particular characteristic is the nebulous smoky aurora surrounding striking life forms, which is enhanced only by his exquisite use of brush strokes. Early influences include the Italian Renascence period. He uses foreshortening, shadowing and detail to portray scenes that draw out the emotion of the viewer. Other influences are early works of Gustav Klimt, his primary subject was the female body, and his works are marked by a frank eroticism—nowhere is this more apparent than in his numerous drawings. Bill’s paintings are concerned with powerful opposites creating potently atmospheric pieces that are emotionally charged. His use of colour and movement embodies the complexities and excitement, as well as the violence and tenderness of the human experience.
