Overview

1944 - 2013

Lived & Worked UK & Australia

 

Roy Jackson was a rare talent whose work spanning more than five decades explored and challenged the possibilities of both abstraction and representation. Highly esteemed by artists, students and critics, the power of his work is in its vitality and the evocation of sensation; his art channels the patterns and latent energy of nature; it can communicate a story, an emotion or an all encompassing response to ‘that place, to that moment, to that time’.

 

A major retrospective of his work from 1963-2013 was held at Drill Hall Gallery in Canberra and revealed the exhilarating breadth of his work; the extent of the artist’s achievement was seen in the context of a lifetime of uncompromising risks, philosophical and intellectual exploration and a dedication to the act of mark making.

 

Roy Jackson’s work is held in numerous public collections including the National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Victoria, Art Gallery of WA, Newcastle Art Gallery, New England Regional Gallery, Wollongong Art Gallery, Manly Art Gallery, Maitland City Art Gallery and the Mosman Art Gallery.


Defiance Gallery is honoured to represent the Estate of Roy Jackson.
