About the book
Justin Mortimer (1970) is a British artist whose paintings consistently invite us to question the relationship between subject matter and content, beauty and horror, and between figuration and abstraction. While the imagery is almost exclusively pitiless, the texturing of the paint, the play between light and shade and the passages that lead from photo-realist definition to near-abstract formlessness are so sensitively handled as to make the work at least partially redemptive as well as to indicate a key philosophical dimension: the oblique relationship between evidence and interpretation. Exhibition: Djanogly Gallery, Nottingham, UK (07.03-31.05.2015) / Parafin, London, UK (22.05-27.06.2015).
