"Revolting" by Leon Goodman (now sold 15/3/12)
CONTROVERSIAL NEW GOODMAN ORIGINAL PAINTING ON CANVAS "Revolting". This disturbing painting capturing the Student riots in London.
The painting has adhered to classical renaissance standards in as much as the famous french neoclassical painter Jean Ingres stated when he was asked what was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen in painting - Juxtapositioning 2 colours almost the same!! The fire hydrant and the background red are approximately the same. It can be seen there is beauty in this juxtapostion. Gustav Dore excelled at juxtapositioning huge figures with small figures and recessioning with Tower Bridge.

Since seeing his work, Risborough Art Gallery have made him a regularly featured artist. Leon’s philosophy is that it is not the delineation of the subject which is important, but its fragmentation. He believes a strictly photographic image does not allow the viewer to participate in the painting. If the image is fragmented, the viewer can imagine for himself the missing parts and involve himself in the creation of the whole image. The viewer has seen his own interpretation of the fragmented images; the next viewer may see something different. GUARANTEED TO BE 100% ORIGINAL AND GENUINE WITH C.O.A.
