Graeme Wilcox
Attended Glasgow School of Art 1989 - 93. Graduated BA (Hons) Fine Art. Since graduating
in 1993 Graeme has continued practice as a painter working in his Glasgow studio.
The Medici Gallery has exhibited Graeme's paintings for the past six years and during this time he has become one of the gallery’s leading figurative painters. His work, technically traditional, has a powerful contemporary feel, depicting underlying tensions between animation and stillness. He is able to portray the transient, blurred image of one moving figure and at the same time, engage in precise photographic representation of another.
All Graeme's paintings for this one man exhibition are oils on canvas,
a departure from acrylics. This change of medium has added a new depth
and richness to his work, enhancing the haunting and sometimes mysterious
imagery in Graeme's paintings.
