WILLIAM ROBINSON (born 1936) Five Peaches 2013 oil on linen signed and dated lower right: William Robinson 2013 titled on gallery label verso 31 x 36cm PROVENANCE: Philip Bacon Galleries, Brisbane (label verso) Private collection, New South Wales EXHIBITIONS: Eternal Present: The Still Life Paintings of William Robinson William Robinson Gallery, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, 14 July 2017 - 25 June 2018 OTHER NOTES: "Robinson's approach to still life acknowledges both the 'civilised' nature of the genre and the simple integrity of the object. He pays a discreet homage to the artists he admires, and shows respect for the humble items he has gathered from many sources. He has not attempted any radical stylistic departures, being content to work from close observation, arranging his subjects in a manner that permits endless variations. The aim is not to break new ground but to dig ever more deeply into a well-worked quarry, uncovering motifs and relationships that are only available to those artists who understand that inspiration is perfectly compatible with the most patient investigation."
