Category Archives: David Larwill

1956 – 2011

David Larwill was born in 1956 in Ballarat, Victoria. He studied at the Prahran College of Advanced Education and the Preston Institute of Technology. He has been painting in his distinctive style since his earlier years as a founding member of the famous ROAR Studios in Fitzroy. Influenced by movements as diverse as tribal art, aboriginal art, abstracted figuration of the 1940s and 1950s and the naive style of DuBuffet and Art Brut.

David's paintings are controlled and sophisticated and characterised by their simplified forms and overall geometric patterns.

Larwill is now a significant figure in the art world with two recent completely sold out exhibitions in Melbourne and Sydney. He has successfully established himself and is maintaining a high profile in a competitive field. David is an artist who has harnessed and refined his emotional desire to put paint on canvas. This has enabled him to produce works motivated by emotion and executed in a mature, considered and polished manner. Larwill's unique mix of simplicity and sophistication will carry him confidently into the future. He has had many solo exhibitions both in Australia and in London and is represented in the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra, National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney and in Parliament House, Canberra.  Sadly David Larwill passed away in June 2011.
