Ivan Peries
Ivan Peries (31 July 1921 – 13 February 1988) was a founder member of the Colombo '43 Group of Sri Lankan artists, and one of its four leading painters, along with George Keyt, Justin Daraniyagala and Harold Peiris.〔'Ivan Peries, Paintings 1938 - 88', Prof. Senake Bandaranayake and Manel Fonseka, Tamarind Publications, Columbo 1996〕 Born near Colombo, he spent more than half his life in self-imposed exile in London and Southend-On-Sea, but his art remained to the end a prolonged meditation on his native Sri Lankan experience.
Peries' subjects, repeatedly rural life and the ocean shoreline, were of 'a world neither ancient nor modern, clearly recognisable, strangely, hauntingly meaningful and yet ultimately outside the natural experience'.〔'Ivan Peries: The 43 Group', Prof. Senake Bandaranayake, Art Sri Lanka (www.artsrilanka.org)〕 The subject of Ivan Peries' paintings, considered alongside his cultural dislocation, have made him an important post-colonial artist,〔'Potent Icons, All Mysterious', Prof. Ashley Halpe, Sri Lanka Sunday Times (www.sundaytimes.lk/970330/plus2.html)〕 and a key figure in the origins of contemporary Sri-Lankan art.
== Early life ==
Peries grew up in Dehiwela, on the Western shore of Sri Lanka, looking towards the Laccadive sea. His father Dr. James Francis Peries had studied medicine in Scotland, and his mother Ann Gertrude Winifred Jayasuria was a graduate of St. Bridget's Convent in Colombo.〔http://www.lesternsumitra.com, biography of brother Ivan〕 Ivan's brother Lester James Peries is a leading Sri Lankan film director. The Peries family was a Roman Catholic family that had become anglicized. Ivan was fluent in English from childhood.
