David Sorensen - The Ultimate Horizon
This is an engaging overview of the final series of works by respected North American artist David Sorensen. David Sorensen (1937-2011) was a major Canadian artist known for his ability to reconcile abstract expressionism with a Turner-like inspiration of light and sky. While clearly aware of and influenced by the art movements and contemporary concerns of his time. Sorensen remained steadfastly committed to the pursuit of a "classical order free of irony." This volume documents Sorensen's final works, a series of colour field abstractions exploring the horizon leitmotif. An original essay by one of North America's most noted curators is accompanied by a statement from the artist's daughter.
