George Underwood

George Underwood paintings are held in many collections across the world. One of his collectors and friend, David Bowie, comments: ‘George has, over the years, refined his work to the point where I would put him among the top figurative painters coming out of the UK.’

Earlier in his career, George made a difficult personal choice between music and art, we now see before us the results of that decision. Figures, heroic, magnificent and mysterious stare from the canvas to middle distance. They offer a narrative and perhaps a clue in their title, the rest is left to our imagination.

There is a fine line between illustration and fine art, indeed for many the two run hand in hand. Many of our finest contemporary artists have grounding in a commercial world where they have learnt many ‘tricks’ with colour, composition and device. George was part of the team responsible for the artwork to Bowie’s ‘Hunky Dory’ and ‘Ziggy Stardust’ album covers he also designed for Marc Bolan, Mott The Hoople and many more. It’s not hard to understand why Red Dot is so excited to have the chance to show the work.
