www.granvillefineart.comRay Mead (1921-1998)GRANVILLE FINE ART, VANCOUVER BC – Nov 26-Dec 10, 2011 Ray Mead: Works from the Collectionof Carolynn Lund-Mead honours a pioneer of contemporary painting in Canada and member of thePainters Eleven. The Painters Eleven was formed in 1953 with the aim of promoting more abstractand experimental art than what was being produced by theGroup of Seven. The group included prominent artists JackBush, Harold Town, Jock MacDonald and Ray Mead duringits exciting and contentious eight years.Ray Mead has been described as “a purposeful painterwith a sophisticated sense of composition”. An admirer ofthe work of Franz Kline and Nicolas de Staël, Mead composedsimple arrangements of line and shape that nonethelesshave a strong anecdotal quality. He worked with multiplelayers of paint to build up “paintscapes” that strove tocapture a child-like quality, although they were executedwith great sophistication.Mead’s work was included in shows at the NationalGallery of Canada in 1956, 1972 and 1992. Until his deathin 1998, he showed in many solo, two-person and groupexhibitions in Ontario and Quebec. His work is in numerouscollections including the National Gallery of CanadaRay Mead, Untitled (c. 1956), oil on canvas,[Granville Fine Art, Vancouver BC, Nov 26-Dec 10]and the Art Gallery of Ontario. A retrospective of his paintingsand drawings was recently shown at Barbara EdwardsContemporary, Toronto.
