Working since the 1950s, Ayres has been celebrated for more than six decades for her use of vibrant color, impasto, tachiste effects and bold forms to create exuberant compositions full of movement and energy. In the 1950s, she applied oils and household paint with rags and brushes; in the 1960s, she created light-filled images in oils or acrylics; in the 1970s, she approached the canvas as an expanse to be filled with a painterly alloverness. Later in that decade and into the 1980s, she began to use thick impasto in carefully designed arrangements; and in recent decades, she has developed simplified organic motifs. 600 10 $a Ayres, Gillian, $d 1930- 650 0 $a Painting, Abstract $z England $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Painting, Abstract $z England $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Prints $z England $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Prints $z England $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Abstract expressionism $z England $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Acrylmalerei $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4132048-7 700 1 $a Cleaton-Roberts, David., $e writer of introduction. 700 12 $a Ayres, Gillian, $d 1930- $e artist. $t Works. $k Selections. 700 1 $a Marr, Andrew, $e writer of foreword. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240320011355.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8650FA52F5D411E7B33F7C0497128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
