Richard Charles Evans

Canadian, b. 1946

Ric Evans is a fixture of Canadian art with a career in abstract painting that stretches back to the early seventies when the very relevance of painting as an art form was being called into question. Painters who pushed the bounds of the medium, such as Evans, solidified the place of painting in the modern world for a modern audience.

As art historian Roald Nasgaard explains, “Ric’s painting thrives on immersing its viewers in experiences of change, dislocation, and decentredness. Their world remains in flux, imagined orders emerging, dissolving, and reemerging.”
