With technical ability that reminds us how much inherent skill and rigorous training the early masters of Western abstraction brought to their work, Brandon-based artist Kurt Noll engages in an art-historical, satirical, and contemporary dialogue with his subjects. The result is a body of work that can be appreciated as much for its humour and play as its references to the master painters of the 20th century. 

About the artist: Kurt Noll is a human. He was an art director, designer, copy writer, and illustrator for a midsize advertising agency during the 1980s. Then he went to graduate school, earned a Ph.D. in the study of ancient, dead people, and eventually arrived at Brandon University. The AGSM Figure-Drawing Group inspired him to begin again as a painter, and so here he is.
