From the mid 1970s, the British artis pursued a radical counter-concept to the art of his time with a stylistically peculiar landscape painting. They are calm and enigmatic pictures that do without any scandal. In large-scale drawings and oil paintings, he plays with the “blot” technique: Amies abstracts the landscapes to convey an idea rather than a realistic image. The reduction to land and sea is a reflection on England and the loss of its individual landscapes to the monotony of industrial and urban proliferation and sprawling housing estates. In this idiosyncrasy - the assertion of the genre of landscape painting and in the painterly quality of the works as a contribution to the assertion of painting in art - lies the importance of this English painter.","brand":"CMYK Book Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46579452936382,"sku":"9783775754705","price":6896.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/9106\/1950\/files\/9783775754705_6ab3a7cb-9610-4816-866f-cd7fe1d2e9b1.jpg?v=1775806081","url":"https:\/\/cmykbookstore.com\/products\/cmyk_9783775754705","provider":"CMYK Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
