George Claessen: Babel to Abstraction<\/span><\/h2>\n

George Claessen (1909-1999)<\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n

George Claessen: Babel to Abstraction marks a major retrospective exhibition of the renowned late artist George Claessen\u2019s multifaceted work, the first presentation of his work in London for 18 years. Presented by London gallery Three Highgate, which is in the vicinity where Claessen himself lived and worked, the works on show span over 70 years and reflect his extraordinary career as an artist and his commitment to abstraction, stating \u201cEvery hue and nuance from a prism comes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Born in Sri Lanka and later moving to London in 1949 where he lived for the rest of his life, George Claessen (1909-99) was a self-taught artist and poet whose art was characterised by his mystical outlook and beliefs. As the British Empire crumbled, Claessen\u2019s painting and poetry can be regarded as a headlong flight from the devastating destruction of nationalism and colonialism.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2018Home at last \u2013 it must be heaven,\u2019 he wrote as he saw Britain for the first time in 1949, glimpsing the rooftops and spires of Gravesend from the ship that had brought him from Bombay. Settling in North London for the rest of his life, those spires seen at the end of a long voyage stayed with him, creating in his art a sense of aspiration and of belonging.<\/span><\/p>\n

Claessen was a founding member of the 43 Group, a 20th-century modern art movement established in August 1943 in Colombo, who embraced modern European artistic forms over traditional Sri Lankan forms while also using some of their own cultural origins as the building bricks for a new art.<\/span><\/p>\n

Poetry was also at the centre of all of the \u201843 Group\u2019s art and almost all of its members were practitioners of more than one art, allowing for a wider vision. In the 1960s, Claessen joined the New Vision Group in London, which consisted of artists committed to abstract and avant-garde art in its many iterations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout his career, Claessen expressed in his art and poetry a unique lyrical language based on his emotional and mystical outlook. It is for this calm poetic abstract expressionist style that Claessen is most celebrated. As the exhibition curator, Alistair Hicks, views it, Classen \u2018treats paint like he treats the words in his poems. He is shifting them around like a child with putty.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

He started to draw and paint aged 29 after joining the Colombo Port Commission as a draughtsman, an occupation he continued until his retirement. It is notable that it was not until he was safely settled in London that Claessen fully made the leap into abstraction \u2013 a place where abstraction had become the currency of the avant-garde. Yet his abstraction is a world entirely of its own \u2013 he made a home in his art.<\/span><\/p>\n

Claessen found a regenerative spirit in abstract art \u2013 indeed his paintings illustrate its healing qualities. \u2018I did try to make another dimension,\u2019 he said, \u2018another dimension which I thought had been overlooked and not known in a mathematical sense.\u2019 In some of his later abstracts, there is a sense of combining geometry and the spirit he was looking for, but he was still wary of trying to pin things down. In painting after painting, he is asking the viewer to expand into the picture, to break out of the cage of our mathematical minds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Classen exhibited his work internationally until well into the 70s, while working as a draughtsman until his retirement. He showed at Venice Biennale in 1956 and at the Sa\u00f5 Paulo, Brazil, Biennale of 1959, where he won an award. His solo shows included Velasquez Gallery, Melbourne, 1947; Archer Gallery, London, 1950; New Vision Centre Gallery, London, 1962; Stanhope Gallery, London, 1975; Gallery 706, Colombo, 1993; Frank T Sabin Gallery, London, 2000; The Gallery Cafe, Colombo, 1999 and 2018: and Paradise Road Gallery, Colombo, 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n

Art enthusiasts<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

While Claessen is popular among art enthusiasts and collectors in Sri Lanka and his exhibitions are a sell-out, he is relatively unknown in the West and rest of the world. With the growing interest in South Asian Art in the West, there is a revival of interest in Claessen, particularly his abstract expressionists work. It is argued that he may be the first Asian abstract expressionist painter. Dr Shamil Wanigaratne\u2019s monograph: \u201cGeorge Claessen, Artist, Sculptor and Poet 1909-1999\u201d, published by Paradise Isle, is the main source of information about this genius.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to the retrospective of Claessen\u2019s work, Three Highgate Editions, the publishing arm of the gallery, will release a new collection of his poetry to coincide with the exhibition. Entitled Collected Poems of a Painter, it features 86 of George Claessen\u2019s poems and a foreword by Alistair Hicks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Three Highgate and George Claessen\u2019s Estate have also partnered with Emmy\/Sundance award-winning documentary film director, Rob Lemkin, to produce a documentary film delving into his life and artistry. The film is scheduled to premiere in November to tie in with the exhibition run at Three Highgate.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018George Claessen: Babel to Abstraction\u2019 has been curated by Alistair Hicks, an independent curator and writer and former Senior Curator at Deutsche Bank, in collaboration with the founder and director of Three Highgate, Irina Johnstone. Alistair Hicks has recently curated Paula Rego shows at the Kestner Gesellschaft in Hannover, and the Pera Museum in Istanbul. He is the author of Global Art Compass; Urban Mirrors; New British Art in the Saatchi Gallery; and The School of London.<\/span><\/p>\n
