Lot 1Stuart Slind, Still life with Green Apples, 2001Stuart Slind, Still life with Green Apples, 2002. Oil on canvas, 24" x 24". Bau-Xi Gallery label verso.
Stuart Slind a Canadian artist of Norwegian descent has lived in both the United States and Canada. He currently lives on Bowen Island British Columbia.
Stuart studied at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design and at the Seattle Academy of Realist Art. His true direction as an artist came, however, from his travels in northern Europe. It was there in the galleries and museums of Oslo, Stockholm and Amsterdam that he found the historical and cultural ground in which to locate his paintings. It is as if the language of the northern painters allowed him to develop his own personal statement.
The style and mood of his paintings may come from the past but the content is personal and of the present. For me to be able to paint an image I need to be able to connect it with my reflective intuitive life. If it has no personal meaning, I cannot paint it. My painting is a personal intimate practice by which I try to make real the more ephemeral emotional aspects of my self. In particular that tangled area of hopes, faith and meaning.
