Ken Currie (born 1960)
The Age of Uncertainty,
1992
etching and aquatint
Ken Currie studied at Glasgow School of Art from 1978 to 1983. His early work was in a social realist vein, much influenced by the mural paintings of Leger and Rivera. He has subsequently moved through a period of painting apocalyptic and grotesque imagery into a kind of ‘figurative minimalism’. These works, from his middle period, were influenced by Goya’s etchings. They explore themes much associated with the changing political landscape of the 1980s and 90s.
This is one of two artworks in The Age of Uncertainty series.
