Andrew Salgado’s new collection of paintings reveals how the written word has proven increasingly important in his creative process. The works included in this new exhibition show the influence of various authors, including Margaret Atwood, Jorge Luis Borges, Rene Daumal, Hillary Mantel, Vladimir Nabokov, Virginia Woolf, and Stephan Zweig.
Salgado (b. 1982, Regina, Canada) is regarded as one of the United Kingdom’s leading figurative painters. He has exhibited worldwide, with solo exhibitions including London, New York, Tokyo, Miami, Toronto, Cape Town, Sydney, and throughout Europe.
