    Walter Hawley Yarwood 1917 - 1996 Canadian oil on

    Est: $15,000 - $20,000

    Walter Hawley Yarwood 1917 - 1996 Canadian oil on canvas laid down on board Island 20 x 30 inches 50.8 x 76.2 centimeters signed and on verso signed and titled Literature:Roald Nasgaard, Abstract Painting In Canada, 2008, page 97 Provenance:Isaacs Gallery, Toronto Private Collection, Ontario Painters Eleven was a thought-provoking and progressive artistic group whose first meeting was in 1953 in Toronto. Their mentality drove Walter Yarwood to experiment with new elements in tightly organized abstract works such as Island. Barrie Hale, a critic of the period, saw this new painting form take shape and coined it "The Toronto Look". He further stated that "the jeopardy of gesture, the path of the artist's hand.....over the surface of the painting, the orchestration of the artist's entire means toward the final work itself - these stamp the Toronto artist of the time as clearly as the compulsion to shake the 'respectability' of the establishment painters that preceded them stamped their lives." Fellow Painters Eleven artist Oscar Cahén influenced Yarwood heavily throughout his career. Cahén had a European German Expressionist aesthetic derived from his training in Europe, which Yarwood adapted in his abstracts. The use of indistinct images, central blocks of isolated colour and broad gestural brush-strokes are all present in this beautifully arranged composition.
