Bohuslav Barlow b.1947 Czech Oil on Canvas
1 of 6
We are delighted to offer for sale this lovely oil on canvas by an artist whose work we have often admired, BOHUSLAV BARLOW, who has signed the painting in the lower right hand corner and dated it 1989. On his Gallery label verso it states that the painting is entitled 'Eagle Crag Tryst'. The painting is one of his allegorical paintings, which are unsettling, haunting and enigmatic and are heavily influenced by the trauma of his youth.
BOHUSLAV BARLOW, was born in 1947 as Bosuslav Klos in Moravia, Czechoslovakia. He, with his mother, fled that country before the Iron Curtain came down and initially went to Munich, where he was left with his grandmother, when his mother came to England in search of work. At the age of 8 he joined her and took the name of his stepfather and became Bohuslav Barlow. He suffered a comfortless and poverty stricken childhood but eventually pencils and crayons became his medium of expression in his drawings. He studied art at the Manchester School of Art, where he used oil paints for the first time, before taking an Honours Degree at The Central School of Art in London. He became an art teacher, but shortly decided to give this up to make his living as a full time artist.
In 1973 he moved to Todmorden in West Yorkshire and opened his own gallery, where he paints in oils, acrylics and pastels. His subject matter includes allegorical studies, figurative studies and still life. He has had numerous solo exhibitions in London and mixed exhibitions including The Royal Academy, Manchester Academy, The Royal Society of Painters, Etchers & Engravers, The Pastel Society, The International Contemporary Art Fairs at Olympia and at galleries in the USA and Oman.
He was elected a Member of the Manchester Academy of Fine Arts in 1991 and The Society of Graphic Fine Art in 1992.
His paintings are in numerous public and private collections including The Royal Family of Saudi Arabia, Hon. Angus Ogilvy, Beryl Reid, and Coopers Lybrand Deloittes and his paintings have been featured on television. He has also published two books of his work. There are at least seven pages of entries about him of google, where it is possible to view several interviews with him talking about his work.
