About the Item
This abstract acrylic painting, inspired by nature, was created by Otto Rogers.
Renowned internationally as a masterful abstract artist, Otto Rogers' distinctive aesthetic often combined geometric passages with forms found in nature, a leaf pattern in this painting. Single leaves appear to float around the canvas in a dynamic composition. Layers of acrylic paint in an earthy palette of grays, deep blue, and moss green, punctuated by white and black, create a subtle texture.
“In a work of art, you take maximum diversity and create a unity…that has a life of its own.” Otto Rogers
“….he is a ‘Big Attack Painter,’ (as Sir Anthony Caro once stated): while he reflected the external world, he painted from the inside and he never compromised his authentic expression.” Jessica Veevers, PhD, Art Historian
Otto Rogers (1935-2019) was born in Saskatchewan and acquired his MA in Fine Arts from the University of Wisconsin. He later taught art at the University of Saskatchewan for 30 years. His work is included in more than 30 public collections across Canada, including the Art Gallery of Ontario, the McMichael Canadian Collection, and the National Gallery of Canada. Roger’s work is also in the Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona and the National Gallery of Iceland, as well as numerous private and corporate collections.
Rogers also helped sustain the Emma Lake Workshops, which provide a meeting place for many of North America's most respected visual artists and critics, including Clement Greenberg, Barnett Newman, Jules Olitiski, Kenneth Noland, Jack Shadbolt, and Helen Frankenthaler. In 2007, a book of his work, Otto Donald Rogers, including a foreword by British sculptor Sir Anthony Caro, was published.
