Overview
Painting becomes interesting when it becomes timeless.
Peter Doig, born on April 17, 1959, in Edinburgh, Scotland, is a distinguished contemporary Scottish painter celebrated for his distinctive approach to landscape painting. Raised in Trinidad, Canada, and London, he honed his artistic skills at the Wimbledon School of Art, St. Martin's School of Art, and Chelsea School of Art. Inspired by Expressionism and Symbolism, Doig became a pivotal figure in the 1990s figurative painting revival. Notable for his dreamlike, colorful, and mysterious compositions, he spent time in Canada during the early 2000s, influencing his later works. Renowned pieces such as "Canoe Lake," "Ski Jacket," and "White Canoe" showcase his talent for blurring the lines between reality and imagination. Nominated for the Turner Prize in 1994 and a recipient of the Wolfgang Hahn Prize in 2008, Doig has achieved global recognition, with his art exhibited in prestigious museums worldwide. Despite his market success, including a record-breaking $25.9 million sale of "Swamped" in 2015, Doig remains a private individual, letting his impactful art speak for itself. -
