Clive D'Oliveira

Clive D'Oliveira makes paintings about painting, about the potency of colour. He says of his work "Colour plays an important yet intangible role in our lives. We know colour reflects and affects our emotions, yet we don't understand why." Early in 2000, D'Oliveira started to research the history and science of the North American SMPTE colour bar test pattern for TV. Colour bars are used in the TV studio for adjusting the colour saturation, hue, brightness, and grey scale tracking. The test pattern colours from left to right are white, yellow, cyan, green, magenta, red, and blue. In his continuing study of the effects of colour, D'Oliveira chose to work with the structure of the SMPTE pattern- seven colours always in the same order. Within this framework he makes arresting and fascinating changes of hue for each colour. Clive D'Oliveira was born in British Guiana, South America, in 1955. He emigrated to Canada in 1966, and in 1980 graduated from the Ontario College of Art. D’Oliveira’s contemporary colour field paintings have been widely exhibited, making him a well-known Canadian artist.
