2of 2 Gallery is pleased to announce a solo
show of new paintings by Vancouver based artist Angus Ferguson.
For his first solo show at 2 of 2 Gallery, Ferguson continues to
direct the growing amount of disorder and abandoned projects in
his studio into paintings. Lost ideas, scraps of model
materials, magazine clippings, older paintings and studio
furniture are combined to form superstructures and environments
that hint at escapist as well as apocalyptic or futuristic
fantasies. The towers, tree forts and islands are testament to
what is essentially time spent in the studio while also
considering its inevitable demise.
Angus Ferguson has a BFA from Emily Carr Institute of Art +
Design (2002). He has recently shown in Vancouver at the Charles
H. Scott Gallery, Belkin Satellite Gallery. In 2007, he was
short listed for the RBC painting competition.
