Quote of the day " I do map out an idea, but it changes ... I work in an abstract way, rather than in a topographical way. There is just this coming together, to make an actuality, of being in that place. Even if it is unrecognisable, it is a sensual place that fascinates me. If you can grasp that, it would be marvelous "
John Virtue in conversation with Andrew Graham Dixon 2015
I always love seeing artist sketchbooks -especially if the form an essential part of an artist practice - thank you #johnvirtue for gifting this one to me alongside the two others I have from our twenty year friendship - these linear drawings made on one walk on the Norfolk coast in 2011 remind me of the drawings of his friend #frankauerbach - John makes this walk every Friday filling a sketchbook each time
Finally - #johnvirtue by #paulmoorhouse .The distinguished former chief curator at #nationalportraitgallery #tate writes of his longstanding admiration for the work of the black and white painter - from very early days tutored by #frankauerbach( with whom he remains in close contact) to first exhibitions #lissongallery ( encouraged by #tonycragg) where he was managed by #KarstenSchubert through to the pure abstraction of the recent #whitepaintings

Startling changes in the work of#johnvirtue - no landscape -no reference and white and black not black and white . The transcendence of gesture. Supreme confidence is required to make a quantum break like this
#johnvirtue like a master calligrapher after decades of mark making arriving at the perfect gesture is only a goal of attainment never to be achieved - never mind - always mind - try again
#johnvirtue gesture on a grand scale - arriving at total abstraction without reference to the landscape substrate
