Lot Report

Note:

International best selling writer and artist, Douglas Coupland pairs his fiction with visual art to create a dialogue between his two forms of artistic expression. Incredibly accomplished, Coupland has published thirteen novels, two collections of short stories, seven non-fiction books, and a number of screenplays for television and film. In 2000, Coupland resumed painting after an over ten year hiatus from the visual arts. His works since 2000 have ranged from fine art to large public sculpture installations, including two cast soldiers in “Monument to the War of 1812” that can be found at the foot of Bathurst in Toronto and “Canoe Landing Park” that can be seen from the Gardiner Expressway in Toronto. His work embodies the essence of the Canadian identity and utilizes mixed media, including silk-screening similar to that of Andy Warhol, to represent what it means to be Canadian. This highly decorated artist is collected internationally and currently resides in West Vancouver, British Columbia.
