CHANTAL JOFFE - UNTITLED (2016). Medium: Archival Inkjet on Somerset Satin Enhanced 330gsm Paper.

Artist Proof from Edition of 50. Size: 30cm (w) x 42cm (h). Born in 1969, Chantal Joffe lives and works in London. Possessing a humorous eye for everyday awkwardness and an enlivening facility with paint, Chantal Joffe brings a combination of insight and integrity to the genre of figurative art.

Hers is a deceptively casual brushstroke: whether in images a few inches square or ten feet high, fluidity combined with a pragmatic approach to representation seduces and disarms simultaneously. Almost always depicting women or girls, sometimes in groups but recently in iconic portraits, the paintings only waveringly adhere to their photographic source, instead reminding us that distortions of the brush or pencil can often make a subject seem more real. Often laying bare the physical effort of their making and suffused with a palpable empathetic warmth, Joffe's paintings are nonetheless deeply questioning images about ever-shifting human connections and the endless intricacies of looking. She holds an MA from the Royal College of Art and was awarded the Royal Academy Wollaston Prize in 2006. Joffe has exhibited nationally and internationally at venues including the National Museum of Iceland, Reykjavík (2016); National Portrait Gallery, London (2015); Saatchi Gallery, London (2013 - 2014).

Joffe will create a major new public work for the Elizabeth line station at Whitechapel. Titled A Sunday Afternoon in Whitechapel, the work will be on view when the Crossrail station opens in December 2018. Joffe primarily paints expressive portraits of women and children, often in very large scale, sometimes 10 feet (3 m) tall. She has painted her own mother repeatedly, for over 30 years. In a 2009 interview with Stella McCartney, Joffe said, I really love painting women. Their bodies, their clothes - it all interests me. Source images for her personality-filled oil paintings include family photos, advertising, fashion magazines, and pornography. Working roughly from her photographic source material, Joffe introduces distortions to her depictions. In the McCartney interview, Joffe mentions the photography of Diane Arbus as an inspiration for her art: I find photography massively influential. Specifically, Diane Arbus, who I've been obsessed with my whole life. Her work has everything about the portrait of a human that you can ever want. A critic for The Independent has said of her "big rude paintings" that she paints with a kind of easy control - effortless without being slick.

" He further points out that her paintings may give an initial impression of simplicity, charm, or childishness, but "they have an unsettling quality which gives the exhibition an odd, rather menacing mood. Some of her paintings are so large that she required scaffolding to work on them. Painting in huge, unfussy brushstrokes, she is unconcerned with stray drips and blobs of paint, and sometimes leaves old outlines visible.

A reviewer noted that painting the heads up close also makes for large, wonky eyes and odd proportions, like Picasso re-invented in manga. In 2006, Colette Meacher, editor of the British magazine Latest Art, described Joffe's large paintings as "simply exquisite representations of femininity". Joffe often draws inspiration from fashion models, "photos of friends, the work of other artists" and images of women and children in realistic poses.

Joffe's work is reminiscent of Alice Neel, with whom she was teamed up for an art show and Joni Mitchell, the Canadian singer, songwriter and figurative artist. This group of artists are known for feminist messages in their work. Please look at my other items including rare modern and contemporary art and design pieces.
