Keith Robinson's paintings lie between Georgia O'Keeffe's romanticised depiction of New York skyscrapers and the De Stijl school of abstract painters. His thin and fluid palette creates a dense and shimmering mirage on canvas, playfully contradicting the very structures he represents. Runner-up in The Scottish Portrait Awards 2021; exhibited at the BP Portrait Award (National Portrait Gallery) and the ING Discerning Eye. His History Revision portraits – painted on used painter's rags – re-evaluate imagery of children scarred by war, removing them from ideological association.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI paint Tower\/Office Blocks for their ubiquity and banality. They are everywhere – at best ignored, at worst seen as eyesores. It is their gridded structure, formed from utility, that I like, as it imposes a recognisable structure to the paintings, then I can play with colour and paint application as the paintings develop.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1054\/0135\/2524\/collections\/960.webp?v=1783589424","url":"https:\/\/www.newbloodart.com\/collections\/keith-robinson.oembed","provider":"New Blood Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
