Euan Macleod - FLUX

Events  >  Euan Macleod - FLUX
In Flux Macleod presents a series of en plain air paintings made on Haupapa Tasman Glacier, alongside studio works whose grand scale emulates their site of inspiration. Macleod’s fascination with potentially dangerous environments recurs as he paints this sublime and inhospitable world of minerals, rock and ice. His climbers, often alone or linked by a rope to a companion figure or guide are metaphors through which the connection to and reliance on another human being is amplified.

Euan MacLeod was born in Christchurch in 1956. He was awarded a Diploma of Fine Arts (Painting) by the Ilam School of Fine Arts, Canterbury University, in 1979, before moving to Sydney in 1981. He has held more than fifty solo shows in New Zealand and Australia and has numerous prizes to his name including the Archibald Prize (1999).
