About the Item
An iconic phrase—‘I DO’—traditionally used in marriage vow ceremonies becomes the focal point for this contemporary painting by Graham Gillmore. The Canadian artist uses everyday language, phrases, and lyrics to create visually arresting and engaging colourful compositions. In this piece, a ‘wash’ of white and yellow appears against a fresh green backdrop. The words, ‘I DO’— in a bold modern font appear in white.
“My work relies on autobiography. It borders on the confessional.” Graham Gillmore
Born in Vancouver, Graham Gillmore studied at Emily Carr College of Art and Design. His work has appeared in numerous exhibitions including the MOMA, NY, the Tate Modern, London, and Galería Fucares, Madrid. His artwork is held in permanent collections such as Colección Jumex, Mexico, S.M.A.K. in Ghent, Belgium, Gian Enzo Sperone collection, Italy, the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art, Toronto, and the Vancouver Art Gallery, Canada.

"Ribbon" Extra-Large Contemporary Landscape Painting By American Martin Hoffman
By Martin Hoffman
Located in Frederiksberg C, DK
Introducing "Ribbon," an extraordinary painting from the "Jersey Meadow Series" by Martin Hoffman in the 1970s. From the 1970s onwards, Hoffman's career showcased a masterful combination of beautiful painting techniques and challenging subject matter. This contemporary painting depicts an abandoned landscape with a hypnotic blue plastic ribbon at its center. Hoffman's landscape creates an almost mesmerizing effect, where the subject matter of destruction and decay is presented poetically. The warm shades of grey with hints of blue, brown, and purple create a limited yet powerful palette that enhances the melancholic beauty of the painting.
The painting measures 151cm x 202cm / 59.5in x 79.5in and is signed 'Martin Hoffman' on the reverse side of the canvas. It is titled 'Ribbon' and is dated '73.' Additionally, the artist specifies that the painting is part of the 'Jersey Meadow Series.' It is ready to hang and comes with a silver-painted frame. The condition of the painting is great, with hardly any signs of wear. The frame has a few scratches but is otherwise in good condition.
