Contrast X Jack Vettriano (李香蘭/Ikanaide )

Jack Vettriano
Born in Fife in 1951, Jack Vettriano has emerged from the unlikely background of an early working life in the Scottish coal-fields to become one of Britain best known contemporary artists; he is entirely self taught. His work first came to public prominence at the Royal Scottish Academy open exhibition in 1988. Since then there have been sell-out exhibitions in Edinburgh, London, Hong Kong, Johannesburg and New York. Jack Vettriano images are a gateway to an alluring yet sinister world; a timeless place where past and present intertwine. It is a world heavy on atmosphere evoking the great noir movies and novels of our time; the drama of men and women is played out in each painting against a backdrop of bars and clubs, seaside and racetracks, ballrooms and bedrooms. Jack Vettriano sets the scene and invites the viewer to develop the narrative. Jack Vettriano has studios in Scotland and in London. He is represented exclusively by Portland Gallery.
