Fine Art Magazine September Edition

IDLE HANDS, Embellished Canvas on Board Edition of 75, 24 x 24”, £1,495 The first thing that strikes you about the new collection from Todd White is the sheer opulence of the vibrant and intense colours, the dazzling shapes and patterns and the beautiful people. But with Todd White there is always a reason to take a second look. As always, there is a story hidden beneath the surface and he takes us on a journey through the layers of meaning to the heart of the matter; and this time, the destination is an intriguing one. Toddwas initially inspired byMexico’s ‘Day of the Dead’, a national celebration of the lives of everyone, past and present, and the journey from light to darkness – and back again. Moving on from this idea he has created a spectacular quartet in which colour and chaos, darkness and light, stunning and sinister are all jostling for supremacy; but under his expert guidance they resolve into a collection that is Todd White at his brilliant best, and utterly drop dead gorgeous. 5 NEW RELEASE TODD WHITE
