About the Item

Portrait of a Native American man by Pal Ygartua (British, b. 1945). Signed and dated "Ygartua '98" in the lower right corner. There is an inscription on verso. No frame. Paul Ygartua (British, b.1945) is a painter and muralist with bases in Canada, France, Spain and England. He has single handedly painted some of the largest public space murals* in Canada and the United States. His most famous works are his "Heritage Series" depicting North American Indians and other ethnic and cultural groups. Its style and images are instantly recognized by many Canadians because of their exposure to Ygartua's murals at Expo 86 (Vancouver) and at Chemainus, B.C. [see Mural Towns*]. His work is also illustrated in numerous books such as Canadian Landmarks and Popular Places (1991), by Lindor Reynolds; Canada: Coast to Coast (1998), edited by Andrew R. Byers; The Encyclopedia of British Columbia (2000), edited by Daniel Francis; and The Expo Celebration: The Official Retrospective Book (1986) by Derik Murray. (1) Ygartua was born in Bebington, England (a suburb of Liverpool); he emigrated to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in 1966, which has been his home base since then, when not traveling. (2) His primary mediums are acrylic on canvas and fresco*, although, he has works in oil, graphite, pen and ink, pastel, poster, lithograph* and mixed mediums. His subjects include landscapes, seascapes, cityscapes, figures, portraits, still life, nudes, social commentary, cultural anthropology, native Indians, the unconscious, and as an abstractionist - shape, color, and texture. His styles are Realism*, Expressionism*, Abstract Expressionism*, Neo-Expressionism, Surrealism* and Abstract Surrealism. (3) He graduated from the Liverpool School of Art in 1965 with a degree in Industrial Design (NDD). He turned to painting full time within a few years of arriving in Canada (c.1968) and has been a full-time painter and muralist since then; his works are in thousands of private and corporate collections. (4) He's exhibited on all continents except Antarctica and regularly travels in Canada, the USA, Europe and Great Britain. He has also worked in Berlin, Germany (1968); Acapulco and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico (1971, 1999 and 2000); Crete and Corfu, Greece (1972); Gran Canaria, Canary Islands (1973); Scottsdale, Arizona (1976); New Orleans, Louisiana (1978); Jerusalem, Israel (1980); Honolulu, Hawaii (1981 and 1982); Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (1984); San Juan, Puerto Rico (1985); Quebec City, Canada (1994); Sydney, Australia (2002); and Montreal, Canada (2001). His most frequent work locations away from Vancouver are Cannes and Paris, France; London, England; and Bilbao and Barcelona, Spain. (5) His paintings have been exhibited with the Federation of Canadian Artists* (1979,1981 and 1987); Expo 86, Vancouver, Canada (1986); New York Art Expo (1987); Salon d'Automne*, Grand Palais, Paris, France (1990, 1992, 1994 and 1995); The Canadian Heritage Art Society (1991); Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum (1991, 1992 and 1997); Sala de Cultura, Bilbao, Spain (2003); and the Firenze Biennale, Florence, Italy (2005). (6) The locations of some of his largest murals include Waikiki, Hawaii (Rodeo Club, 7ft X 25 ft - 1981); Chemainus, B.C. (Native Heritage, 25ft X 50ft - 1983 and The Hermit, 8ft X 16ft - 2008 ); Vancouver, B.C. (EXPO '86 United Nations Pavilion A World United, 30ft X 100ft - 1986); Cannes, France (La Croisette, 5 Panels - 1995); Oshawa, Ontario (Oshawa Generals, 15ft X 35 ft - 1997); Whistler, B.C. (Totem Village, 15ft X 25 ft - 2000); Surrey, B.C. (International Beachcomber Record Breakers, 30ft X 300 ft - 2000); Ely, Nevada (United by Our Children, 30ft X 110ft - 2001); and Gorliz, Spain (Gorliz Gehituz, 30ft X 92 ft - 2010). (7) In addition to the books noted above, his work is discussed in Artists of British Columbia (1986), by Derek Morys-Edge (illustrated); The Chemainus Murals (1998), by Cynthia Bunbury and Gregg Perry (illustrated); and The Collector's Dictionary of Canadian Artists at Auction (2001), by Anthony R.
