Jürgen Görg
Parade Large Oil Painting

1989

About the Item

"Parade" Oil, graphite on linen canvas, canvas 46x39 with frame 63x55. Jurgen Gorg was born in 1951 in​ Dernbach Germany. His formative years were spent in Koblentz, before moving to Maintz to study at the Johannes Guttenberg University. He has happy memories of his student days, particularly of his teacher Saalfield for motivating him to draw with academic precision - a skill and gift his works still possess to this day. Gorg captivates with the line of his drawings. He combines the mastery of the classical line, as found in the Italian Renaissance, with a very modern interpretation and use. The viewer becomes caught in the movement. The melodic flow reminds one of jazz and the improvisational quality of the departure from and returns to a simple melody. Space is explored, filled, and accented ­ all executed with a lyrical, subtle, and delicate fluidity. Most often Görg uses a monochromatic palette. Soft color is applied with graphite in combination with the translucent layers of oil. Shading is subtle - white highlights focus attention, as does the sparing use of bright color. As his mind flows, his hand follows. The human body is the predominant image portrayed by Gorg. His artistic universe consists of lovers, dancers, musicians, and masked personages. Tender, lithe, slim, and youthful, these idealized, loosely rendered figures suggest the timeless and eternal. The focus of his works centers on body language and kinetic movement. By leaving the faces vague, with eyes almost always closed, there is room for dreaming ­ both in the viewer and in the subjects of the painting. This quality of the somewhat indefinite, yet perfect form, creates a romantic aura.

  • "Fence Jumper", oil painting, figurative, boy, flight, field, outside, summer
    Located in Toronto, Ontario
    "Fence Jumper" is an oil painting with chalk and graphite on wood panel, and measures 16" high by 12" wide. It is finished with a clear resin across the surface, lending the artwork a particular warmth and liquidity that is rare and lovely to behold. Typical of the artist, the painting is a mystery despite its apparent simplicity – a boy, a young lad leaps over the fence, seen here mid-flight. It's clearly important to the boy. His focus and sense of achievement ring out. Drawn lines and painterly brushstrokes render the scene, but also note the toned wood coming through as color and texture. All of it held, as if in time, by the resin layer acting as a lens to both transmit this picture and admit light to the picture. A true artifact. From Will Hudson...

  • "Man Overboard", oil painting, figurative, man, woman, bikini, recline, gaze
    Located in Toronto, Ontario
    "Man Overboard" is an oil painting with chalk and graphite on wood panel, and measures 16" high by 12" wide. It is finished with a clear resin across the surface, lending the artwork a particular warmth and liquidity that is rare and lovely to behold. Typical of the artist, the painting is a mystery despite its apparent simplicity – a woman wearing part of her bikini stretches out beside a pool or body of water, while another figure hovers nearby. The title Man Overboard would suggest the woman's pose and partial nudity have completely derailed the man's intentions – perhaps driven him to distraction. Note the restrained color palette, the subtle toning of the wood surface, the bodies rendered and bodies suggested. The surface is very interesting – drawn lines and painterly brushstrokes to be sure, but also the toned wood coming through as color and texture. All of it held, as if in time, by the resin layer acting as a lens to both transmit this picture and admit light to the picture. A true artifact. From Will Hudson...
