Canadian artist John Meredith is a well-known contemporary painter whose works have attracted international attention. His bright, bold murals have been exhibited in major galleries and museums in Canada, the United States and Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n His aim in general terms thought has been described by him-\u201cI attempt, through painting, to express and give visual existence to thoughts, feelings and intellectual reactions to things with and outside of me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The triptych which Mr. Meredith was commissioned to create for the NAC Cafe is an excellent example of the artist\u2019s highly individualistic style. Now hanging in the Opera Foyer, it is a large horizontal abstract with splashed or orange and yellow outlined in black, against a blue ground.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f9af0e”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_cta button_text=”Click Here” _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#fc810f” inline_fonts=”Amaranth”]<\/p>\n Try the activity below to see the artwork behind it<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default”]<\/p>\n
