MARBURG/ Mateja Simenko titled and dated on gallery label verso 190 x 150cm PROVENANCE: Olsen Gallery, Sydney (label verso) Private collection, Melbourne EXHIBITIONS: This is a Shelter, Olsen Gallery, Sydney, 30 May-24 June 2018 OTHER NOTES: John Young is one of Australia's foremost contemporary artists, combining innovative painterly practice along with scholarly discourse. Born in Hong Kong, John Young relocated to Australia with his family in the late 1960s. Young nurtured an interest in Philosophy of Science and Aesthetics but returned to study Painting and Sculpture at the Sydney College of the Arts, completing his studies in 1980. Spectrumfigure is a series of seven works that Young had been experimenting with for 12 years. Produced by a unique process, the artist collates thousands of photographic images sourced online. Then using an algorithm these images are blended into formless abstracts of colour, which the artist then intricately replicates onto canvas. The result is a resonating conglomeration of the colour spectrum, or 'algorhythm', so vibrant on the canvas that you can almost hear it. (1) After more than 70 solo exhibitions, including two survey exhibitions, Young continues to innovate his artistic practice.

        FIGURE STUDY V, AUTUMN signed, dated, titled and inscribed 'Figure Study V/JY/Autumn 2000/assisted by Amanda Marburg' (on the reverse) digital scan and oil on canvas 87 x 136 cm PROVENANCE Sherman Galleries, Sydney Acquired from the above by the present owner in 2000 EXHIBITION Sydney, Sherman Galleries, John Young - Awful Backlash, 5 - 27 May 2000, cat. no. 10 NOTES "John Young is known for his overlaid painted images of existing photographic reproductions, that he either happens to come across, or takes from a well stocked archive. Romantic style landscapes, nude photography, flora from gardening books, still life pictures and images of movie stills, count among the repeated sources to date. When confronted with one of his multilayered works, there is a desire to look for some form of unified purpose behind each juxtaposed image. For what appears familiar, is on closer scrutiny ambivalent, evading the unified meaning we may wish to allocate to the work. Whether intentional or not, Young's work often leaves the viewer with a sense of discontent, even irritation since we are unable to get close to the artist's intention. His use of such imagery aims to show how both photography and painting have the potential to misinform, to trick the viewer into thinking that what they are observing comes out of their own experiences. In fact, what functions as the real, is a constructed reality" (P Kember, Rethinking, Refunctioning, John Young - Awful Backlash, cat. Sydney, 2000).
