1996

About the Item

Sandbar Trilogy is a brilliantly colorful pop art painting, an ode to the popular gay beach scene in Miami, Florida. Three panels of male figures are seen lounging, sitting and standing. The painting style—graphic, semi-abstract and hard-edged is accentuated by a vivid color palette of turquoise and red bordered by deep blue. Often referred to as Canada’s Warhol, Charles Pachter is renowned as a multi-talented award-winning artist whose resume includes painting, printmaking, sculpting, designing and writing. In the 1990s Pachter spent several months painting in a studio in South Miami Beach. “Charles Pachter is the most Canadian artist this country has ever produced…and no one else can do what he does.” Leonard Wise, Author and Art Critic Charles Pachter studied at the University of Toronto, the Sorbonne in Paris, and the Cranbrook Academy of Art in the USA. Among his many accolades, he is an Officer of the Order of Canada, a member of the Order of Ontario, a Chevalier of France’s Order of Arts and Letters and a recipient of the Queen’s Golden and Diamond Jubilee medals. He has had numerous solo exhibitions in Europe, Japan, the UK, India and Bangladesh.
