Mid Century Perspectives, the paintings of Andy Burgess

Mid-Century Perspectives is a temporary exhibition at the Tucson Museum of Art focused on the paintings of Andy Burgess. The vibrant light of the American Southwest along with the modern architecture in the region has had a noticeable impact on the subjects and color palette of Burgess’s paintings. The painter had an international reputation when he moved from London to Tucson in 2009. “His work has become a sustained meditation on the relationship between architecture and art,” say Julie Sasse, Chief Curator of the Tucson Museum of Art. The opening coincides with the TMA’s free first Thursday program.

I absolutely love his paintings. I grew up in central London too, but have spent a lot of time in LA, also home to some beautiful Mid Century Modern architecture. Thanks so much for the film

Andy’s no 1 UK fan! Oh to be rich, I’d buy all his collections.

My own art is more to do with MCM than anything, the form and lines are what creates that mood

Nice but he’s literally doing what a famous artist has already done in the same style..
I didn’t hear him once pay homage to the artist he’s copying..
he calls it abstract but it’s 60s pop art he’s doing as it’s already been done!!! Cmon!!
