Exhibition at
British Council Gallery
17 KG Marg CP New Delhi
May '15 till 25 jul '15
Jullian Opie is a British contemporary artist born in 1958. He spent time at the Godfrey college of London from 1979 to 1982, studying arts. In the winter of 2012, accompanied by his young son, he visited a pastoral field at a country side in France.
As he walked across a circular path on the field, he took photographs after every twenty steps. Drawing reference from dutch landscape paintings and google street view, he then compiled the exhibition "Winter", composed of 75 digital inkject prints laminated to glass, from the walk.
He is likely to have used some kind of layering and photo modification software for development of the final prints in a true inter- disciplinary style. The music for the exhibition has been composed by british musician Peter Englishby featuring the voice of Aneila Opie, Jullian' wife.
In an essence depicting the changing landscape with movement, artwork is composed of a dominantly green pallet and strikes a chord with the constraints and calmness of the Winter. In the press release, it been termed as a 'harsh but beautiful day'.
Like the earth, while spinning, entralls in a circle to be in orbit around the sun, drawing its golden light in paradigms of changing seasons, Opie has already produced the next in series, Summer, which centers the same location but a different time. It has a vivid and energetic lush.
