Gallery: Colin Carruthers

2007 Artery Gallery, Scotland
Exhibiting at Artery Gallery in St Andrews and Crieff with his new work is internationally selling artist Colin Carruthers. Due to the high success Colin has had in exhibiting his work constantly through Artery Gallery, he has given the gallery exclusive selling rights, now allowing them to be the only gallery in Scotland to show his works.

Jason Michaelson of Artery Gallery says We feel this is a bit of a coup for us, being a Scottish contemporary art gallery and securing unique selling rights to the works of a successful artist. We like to work with our artists and try to help them progress. In his time exhibiting with us, we have seen a fantastic development in Colins work and this has been reflected in his success.

Originally from Northern Ireland and now living and working in the West Midlands, Colin makes regular trips up to Scotland to capture its scenery and dramatise the textured poetry of the landscape in his art. His paintings document nature stripped bare of obvious signs and markers, confronting universal realms of experience.

Colin says, I regularly travel to Scotland, where I find the high drama of the Scottish Coast, a constant source of influence for my paintings. There’s a challenge involved in my work. With every canvas I attempt, I am searching for something. Beyond simply looking at my paintings and gaining an aesthetic pleasure, I do think it’s important that they offer up space for thought”

The strengths of his canvases lie in their versatile response to nature as he grapples with the relationship between memory, place and emotion. His work challenges our assumptions of landscape and returns us to a new sense of engagement, both spiritual and practical, with our surroundings. His triptychs in particular, often mounted into a single frame; add that extra panoramic dimension to the image.
