Dean Leonard Buchanan (born 22 June 1952) is a New Zealand-based abstract and landscape painter. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Buchanan, Dean Leonard - Artists - Australian Art Auction Records )〕 He has exhibited widely throughout New Zealand, as well as in Chile, the USA, and Japan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dean Buchanan | New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts )〕 His first solo show in 1978 was at the Outreach Gallery in Ponsonby, Auckland. He has also been involved in many group shows - the first at the age of 19, the “ Young Contemporaries” at The Auckland City Art Gallery in 1971. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wild Beast by Bob Harvey )〕 Dean Buchanan is one of New Zealand’s best-known artists. From an early age he showed talent, painting large oils that demonstrated both technical brilliance and a close affinity with the natural world. During the past thirty years he has become probably New Zealand’s most prolific (and also most affordable) painter, as well as one of the most instantly recognisable. His paintings are found in homes throughout New Zealand, in public buildings and galleries both here and overseas. He has also exhibited in Australia, Japan, Chile, Switzerland and the USA. Coupled with his creative talent is an ability to live life to the full. No shrinking violet, 'Wild Beast’ Buchanan has always expressed himself forthrightly, especially in defence of preserving New Zealand’s natural environment. He has also become a mountaineer of some note, and in January 2007 succeeded in climbing Mt Cook. Bob Harvey interviewed Dean Buchanan extensively for this book, and describes every facet of his life. The book also includes sixty reproductions of some of his greatest paintings. 〔 Over a period of about forty years artist Dean Buchanan has continually put his distinct and dynamic view of New Zealand landscape on canvas and hessian. The physical kind of relationship Buchanan has with the landscape is translated directly into his quick and forthright way of painting. The impact the landscape has on him is also clear in his work, which is bold in color and line and full of a sense of rhythm. ==Solo Exhibitions== *1978 Outreach Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1979 Little Maidment Theatre Auckland New Zealand *1980 100m2 Auckland New Zealand *1981 Denis Cohn Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1982 Outreach Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1982 Little Maidment Theatre Auckland New Zealand *1983 Outreach Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1984 New Vision Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1985 ANZAS Auckland New Zealand *1986 Words and Pictures Auckland New Zealand *1986 Auckland Society of Arts Auckland New Zealand *1987 Lopdell House Auckland New Zealand *1987 Auckland Society of Arts Auckland New Zealand *1988 N.Z High Commission Los Angeles USA *1988 Amy Thomas Gallery Boca Raton USA *1989 Charlotte H Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1990 Gallery 119 Hamilton New Zealand *1990 Daikokuya Ginza Tokyo Japan *1991 Whangarei Art Gallery Whangarei New Zealand *1992 Milford House Dunedin New Zealand *1992 Tanishima Gallery Tokyo Japan *1993 Warwick Henderson Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1994 Milford House Dunedin New Zealand *1995 Warwick Henderson Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1996 The Pumphouse Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1996 Milford House Dunedin New Zealand *1996 Warwick Henderson Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1997 Lopdell House Auckland New Zealand *1997 Miro Gallery Napier New Zealand *1998 Warwick Henderson Gallery Auckland New Zealand *1999 Milford House Dunedin New Zealand *2000 Warwick Henderson Gallery Auckland New Zealand *2001 Warwick Henderson Gallery Auckland New Zealand *2001 Paciflcart Gallery Zug Switzerland *2004 Warwick Henderson Gallery Auckland New Zealand *2004 Galerle Romerapotheke Zurich Switzerland *2004 West Coast Gallery New Zealand *2005 Corbans Art Centre Auckland New Zealand *2007 Compendium Gallery Auckland New Zealand 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dean Buchanan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
