A showcase of ‘everything that’s impressive and downright baffling’ about this brilliant Scottish painter
The Scottish artist Peter Doig is arguably “the most influential living painter of his generation”, said Mark Hudson in The Independent. His paintings have sold for record sums, and traces of his “enigmatic” style can be detected in the work of countless younger artists. Doig (b.1959) blends dreamlike figuration with elements of abstraction, incorporating both a wealth of art historical allusions and “references and quotes from his own life, photography and popular culture”.
