KIM DORLAND (1974-)UNTITLED (LORI)oil on wood panelsigned and dated 2009 on the reverse 48 ins x 36 ins; 121.9 cms x 91.4 cms Provenance:Private Collection, TorontoKim Dorland was born in 1974 in Wainwright, Alberta and graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver and a Master of Fine Arts from York University in Toronto. Dorland’s works render the nostalgic spaces of the artist’s upbringing in Canada, often through a deft and distinct handling of sumptuous impasto layers and bold, broad, brush strokes. With a haunting and unexpected beauty, they draw attention to their own physicality, as well as their personal nature. Visceral and expansive, Dorland's art is fierce, eccentric and stunning. The artist’s unique vision and colour sensibility, paired with elements of abstraction function collectively to engage the viewer and challenge notions of what is expected of representation. Dorland has exhibited globally, including shows in Milan, Montreal, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles and is featured in numerous private, corporate and public collections of note including the Glenbow Museum in Calgary, the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. The artist currently lives and works in Toronto. Estimate: $7,000–9,000

KIM DORLANDUNTITLEDoil on canvassigned and dated 2012 on the overflap 40 ins x 30 ins; 102.2 cms x 76.2 cms Provenance:Private Collection, TorontoNote:While this work predates Dorland’s summer residency at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection and the acclaimed exhibition that was developed as a result of his time there, it is hard not to see a ghost-like figure of Thomson or a surrogate for him (perhaps the artist himself?) standing on the edge of Dorland’s lake. Dorland was interested in the mythology of Thomson, an idea which he explored in depth for the McMichael show. In looking at this picture, however, one needs to consider if the preoccupation with this early Canadian master is Dorland’s or our own, so pervasive is the narrative around the artist’s untamed genius and mysterious death.Estimate: $9,000–12,000

KIM DORLANDSWIMMING IN THE LAKE, 2007oil, acrylic and spray paint on canvas, unframedsigned, titled and dated on the reverse 54 ins x 84 ins; 111.8 cms x 193 cms Provenance:Private Collection, New YorkLiterature:Katerina Atanassova et al., Kim Dorland, McMichael Canadian Art Collection, Kleinburg, 2014, pages 9 and 16.Note:Kim Dorland emerged on Canada's art scene shortly after graduating from York University with an M.F.A. in 2003. After 2005, he began the practice for which he is now known: building up his paintings with thick layers of impasto, directly from the paint tube or using knives and improvised implements, until the nodules of paint become so heavy that they sometimes require anchoring to the canvas with screws. Ever since then Dorland has been enjoying international fame as one of Canada's preeminent mid-career painters. Dorland is a native of Wainwright, Alberta, and his work in the 2000s drew heavily on the youthful memories of his self-proclaimed "white trash" upbringing in the Prairies. Images of teenagers loitering in the woods, as in Wooded Area and Fire Pit of 2006, are quick to condemn the apathy of these youths while the artist's signature flares of fluorescent colour build an eerie landscape that is not to be trusted. Dorland's decade-long exploration of wooded scenes once elicited the comment: “I am in awe of nature but I'm also scared to death of it" in an interview. Swimming in the Lake completes this narrative in a less direct, voyeuristic way than the more confrontational paintings Dorland produced between 2005 and 2010. Employing a wide array of painting techniques, including airbrush and thin, scraping brushstrokes, the canvas is kept to a low profile and the action centred within a proscenium arch of graffiti-like trees. The viewer stands deep in the forest, peering out into the clearing and the action on the lake; an evocative memory, or a cautionary tale. In 2013 Dorland was the first artist to participate in the McMichael Art Collection's revamped artist-in-residence program, a venture which brought his work to more Canadians than ever before. The resulting canvases were shown alongside those of iconic Canadian painters like Tom Thomson, David Milne, and Frederick Varley in the exhibition You Are Here: Kim Dorland and the Return to Painting. Dorland has shown internationally in Milan, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. His paintings are in a number of public collections, including that of the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, Calgary’s Glenbow Museum, and Berlin’s Sander Collection, as well as numerous corporate and private collections.

KIM DORLAND LOST oil on linensigned, titled, and dated 2011 on the reverse 36 ins x 48 ins; 91.4 cms x 121.9 cms Provenance:Private Collection, New YorkLiterature:Whyte, Murray. "How Kim Dorland is changing the landscape at McMichael Gallery." The Toronto Star. October 18, 2013.Note:Drawing his inspiration from iconic artists such as Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven, Kim Dorland takes the rich tradition of Canadian landscape painting and infuses it with contemporary imagery. In Lost (2011) the viewer is introduced to a subdued landscape, a departure from Dorland's characteristically large and vibrant work. Painted on a small scale, a thick black impasto for which he is known lies against an iridescent silver sky, introducing us to Dorland's eerie depiction of our natural environment and the artist's unique interpretation of nature. "When you're dealing with only the landscape, you have to tune up the material a lot to push it into an interesting, uncomfortable place... if I produce something that's strictly just beautiful, I failed. My biggest fear is that my paintings go somewhere and then become inert."The diversity of Kim Dorland's work is evident in Moose (2011). In this work the artist experiments with mixed media on a taxidermied moose head, pushing the boundaries of paint and material. Dorland insists that first and foremost, his works are about the creative process, his near obsession with colour and his powerful and intuitive relationship to paint. The sculpture bears a strong relationship to our landscape by presenting a wild Canadian icon while simultaneously diffusing the animal's predacious quality.Dorland studied at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design (Vancouver) as well as York University (Toronto) where he received his Master of Fine Arts degree in 2003. His works are exhibited globally and are included in the collections of the Musée des beaux- arts in Montréal; Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal; Glenbow Museum (Calgary), and the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego.

Accessed July 5, 2014. http://modernnyc.com/kim_dorland_mike_weiss_gallery.html.Note:A painter of extremes, Kim Dorland's artwork is an instantly recognizable fusion of intense colour, copious amounts of paint and psychological narratives. Drawing his inspiration from the likes of Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven, he takes the rich tradition of Canadian landscape painting and infuses it with contemporary imagery such as spectral figures that seem alienated in natural settings and colour combinations that transfix the viewer's gaze. In Dripping Dream #2, (2013), Dorland depicts himself sitting deep in the woods making the first brushstroke on an otherwise blank canvas of neon pink. "This painting came from a photo of me painting outdoors at the Emma Lake workshop in 2009...I wanted to make a painting that used this experience but twisted it to give it a sense of claustrophobia and a hallucinatory feel." The sitter for Sad Girl (2008), from Dorland's portrait series About a Girl, is his wife, Lori. The massive scale of the painting and the seemingly violent rendering of the subject are at first disconcerting. Viewers are left pondering the psychology behind such a depiction, but the artist insists that first and foremost, his works are about the creative process, his near obsession with colour and his powerful and intuitive relationship to paint. Dorland studied at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design as well as York University where he received his Master of Fine Arts in 2003.
