About The Work
Charles Pachter is one of the most collected and cherished Canadian artists.
His iconic, uplifting and patriotic images have independently earned their place in the nation's museums from coast to coast.
In "Statuesque", Pachter gorgeously depicts a statue of classical Greek/Roman style lounging beneath a stunning sunset sky of tangerine, pumpkin, rust and turquoise. The statue's form, wind blown hair, and facial expression are strikingly human. The casual pose is reminiscent of Pachter's work during the late 1970's and early 80's when he'd frequently depict his friends lounging in casual scenarios - defying the avant-garde of the era, and producing work that was figurative and inherently personal.
The composition of this work juxtaposes the bright, vibrant streaks of sunset sky and cloud against the monochromatic grey body of the statue. This is an exceptionally unique example within Pachter's painting practice.
