Graham Gillmore Art
Canadian, b. 1963
Following graduation from the Emily Carr School of Art and Design in 1985, Graham Gillmore and fellow grads Douglas Coupland, Angela Grossmann, Derek Root and Atilla Richard Lukacs founded the artistic group Futura Bold. Within a year of showing works in Vancouver, Gillmore and the other members of the group were selected by Scott Watson to present in the famed “Young Romantics” exhibition. This display at the Vancouver Art Gallery launched the careers of five of Canada’s most outstanding young artists.
In 1986, Gillmore moved to New York City where he exhibited his word-play paintings at numerous galleries including the 49th Parallel gallery and the Mary Boone Gallery. Since then, Gillmore has exhibited widely in galleries and museums across the U.S., Canada and Europe, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Tate Modern and Canada House in London, the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery, the South Carolina Museum and the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum. He has been featured in publications such as Canadian Art, W magazine, Art News, ArtForum, L.A. Weekly, C Magazine and the New York Times Magazine.
Gillmore’s work is held in numerous private, corporate and public collections, including the Museum of Fine Arts Ghent in Belgium, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Toronto, the Vancouver Art Gallery, the University of Lethbridge in Alberta and the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

Whispers of Ancestry , Figurative original painting by Tetiana Pchelnykova
Located in Zofingen, AG
In the evocative stillness of "Whispers of Ancestry," the latest painting in my "Thoughts" series, I present a young woman seated, her knees drawn up to her chest in a gesture of contemplation and self-protection. Her bare form speaks not just of vulnerability but of the raw canvas of humanity, unshielded and sincere.
This image captures a moment of introspection, where the silence around her is rich with the echoes of ancestral wisdom. The apple trees, heavy with crimson fruit, bend towards her as if to share the stories and lessons imbued by generations past. Their red apples are like whispers of knowledge, symbols of the life force passed down through time, offering both sustenance and reflection.
The woman's dreamy gaze suggests she is not just recalling her own experiences but also accessing the collective memory and spirit of her lineage. In this piece, the apple trees serve as a bridge between the present and the whispers of history, reminding us that we are forever rooted in the stories of those who came before us.
"Whispers of Ancestry" is a homage to the continuum of life, an artistic meditation on the interconnectedness of our individual journeys with the enduring legacy of our forebears. It is an invitation to the viewer to listen to the whispers of their own heritage and to find strength in the shared wisdom that has weathered the passage of time.
