    PHILIP HENRY HOWARD SURREY, R.C.A. MARCH WIND, 1965 mixed media on paper signed; titled and dated to gallery label on the reverse 12 ins x 21 ins; 30.5 cms x 53.3 cms Provenance: Kastel Gallery Inc., Montreal Galerie Valentin, Montreal Private Collection, Montreal Anyone who has experienced March weather of the Canadian variety will simultaneously wince and chuckle at this familiar scene. The wind nearly topples the pedestrians as they hurl their bodies, twirling and pitching, hands on caps and skirts, into the gusts that threaten to bowl them over. One man walks determinedly against the wind, against the flow of the crowd, barely catching purchase on the sloped ground. Philip Surrey goes so far as to angle the majority of his pencil and brushstrokes as if they too are being subjugated by invisible winds, heightening the effect. The artist was a lifelong pedestrian, walking to and from work, and often used the simple act as a basis for many compositions. While the artist’s skill is such that the cool air seems to blast out from the page, there is a sympathetic lightness to the scene, as the viewer watches the small figures dance and joust with the March wind. Estimate: $3,000–4,000

    Sep. 17, 2020

    PHILIP HENRY HOWARD SURREY, R.C.A., BOULEVARD GOUIN, oil on masonite, 20 ins x 30 ins; 50.8 cms x 76.2 cms

    Est: $15,000 - $20,000

    PHILIP HENRY HOWARD SURREY, R.C.A. BOULEVARD GOUIN oil on masonite signed 20 ins x 30 ins; 50.8 cms x 76.2 cms Provenance: Gauvreau Gallery, Montreal Private Collection, Ontario Of Philip Surrey’s work, Robert Ayre wrote in 1940 that it evoked “the loneliness and secrecy of the night, created by still, poised compositions, by sombre colours, by mysterious shadows and, here and there, an eerie light…There is a story in most of Surrey’s paintings: not an anecdote made obvious but a story implied for your own imagination to complete.” Indeed, a painting that appears simple at first glance slowly reveals itself to be the intersection of three vignettes: the couple on promenade, a boater on the river, and a car looping around the bend on the road, visible only by its lights. Surrey guides the viewer through the scene masterfully, coaxing the eye around the canvas using the curves of the low-slung telephone wire, the mirrored sweep of the road and the backhand arc of the trees. The effect is cinematic, simultaneously serene and unsettling, in the way of a David Lynch film. The composition functions as a painterly choose-your-own-adventure story, with the viewer left to contemplate the anterior and posterior of this moment in time. The pivotal moment takes place almost offstage, in the form of the approaching vehicle. Surrey frequently returned to the car as a subject; Gilles Daigneault wrote of Surrey that "...there is one thing that occupies a special place in the artist's imagination and which he often uses to express what he resents most: the automobile." Indeed, in this painting it is the car that will interrupt and perhaps even threaten the couple’s bucolic stroll. The painting takes its title from a street of the same name, the longest on the Island of Montreal. Gouin wraps around the north side of the island, bordering the Riviere des Prairies. Estimate: $15,000–20,000

The Visual Arts in Canada: The Twentieth Century, Oxford University Press, Canada, 2010, page 131.T.F. Rigelhof, Philip Surrey, Girl on a Gallery, 1966, 2016.Montreal artist Philip Surrey (1910-1990) is known foremost as a painter of urban scenes and typically his city is shown in use by its citizens who occupy places where people naturally gather. Sandra Paikowsky calls them “social places,” like Place Ville Marie or Green Avenue. Paikowsky remarks that in the work of painters like Surrey images of their hometown can be considered symbolic of their own biographies.Indeed, the notion of biography is very much present in this painting. Surrey taught at Sir George Williams (now Concordia). Part of the course of study included “what students might see if they looked into their gardens/back yards.” Girl on a Gallery is set on the balcony of Surrey’s Grosvenor Avenue home in Westmount, one of Montreal’s toniest neighbourhoods. There has been some well-founded conjecture about who the subject is (a close friend of the artist) and her story (a dramatic breakup and new affair), the repercussions of which she is now contemplating, possibly even regretting. The composition is intriguingly ambiguous about this - or simply discreet, the result of Surrey not wanting to cast judgment. The girl seems to shy away from the light source as though fearful of being exposed further. And are the tree branches embracing the girl, or does their reach imply a more ominous intention? The answer may be subject to our own predispositions about such affairs of the heart. Surrey was a meticulous technician and would have prepared many sketches before rendering this large oil painting. One of these, a 12 x 18 inch ink and charcoal drawing is in the collection of the Ottawa Art Gallery.  Estimate: $18,000–22,000
