Item Overview

Description

* White (Caroline, 20th c.). "Le Tholonet", 1986, mixed media on intricately cut and pierced card with scoring, showing steps up to an arched doorway, signed and dated lower right, inscribed by the artist on the verso, 55 x 22cm (21.75 x 8.75ins), framed and double-glazed. Caroline White has been a professional artist for over 30 years. She studied at St. Martin's School of Art from 1969, and subsequently lectured on sculpture at Bristol from 1974 until 1990. She left England in 1990 to live in France where a life of rural isolation allows her to concentrate on her work. Her paintings and sculptures are in many public and private collections, notably in England, the USA, France, Germany, Spain, South Africa and Japan. Architecture, particularly Romanesque architecture, is a great influence on her work, and she writes: 'All my work is principally a process of evolution, beginning with drawings made in situ in which I attempt to understand the structure and content of a subject, and developing into forms of two or three dimensions which are increasingly abstract in nature. Underlying all these forms is a strongly geometric structure of arcs, circles and ellipses drawn through the space in an attempt to reflect the infinite possibilities of form, light and colour.'. (1)
