'Really fine paintings' - Marina O'Loughlin "Rules fo restauarant dining: The FT Experts' annotated guide." The Financial Times, FT Weekend 20 March 2025
A sense of humour and joy signify these paintings that skillfully elevate the mundane. Set on monochromatic backgrounds, these loosely painted icons showcase a genuinely singular style that lends the subjects a remarkable presence while reimagining still lives in a contemporary context.
In 1995, at the age of 28, Christian Furr became the youngest artist to paint HM Queen Elizabeth II after the Queen personally chose him to be commissioned by the Royal Overseas League.
Furr’s successive works have adorned the walls of The National Portrait Gallery, the Royal Society of Portrait Painters and the private collection at the Vatican. In 2019, he had a mid-career retrospective at the Williamson Art Gallery and Museum.
