TERRY BLACK

One Art


Two Mediums

"Terry Black's earlier paintings are songs, the current paintings are symphonies.”
Conductor:  Wayne Jeffrey

Available Paintings

Don’t buy a painting unless you feel something that’s hard to say

Being directly in front of a large painting is an experience… seeing it on a small screen isn’t.
You can see either of these paintings in a Private Viewing.

Early risers know that first light, it’s a private time. They’re not there for the light;  they own the day.

Film

“This is film as art. Terry Black is creating a whole new genre.”
Former Chair of the Toronto International Film Festival:  Allen Karp

A Terry Black Film

The Beggars Banquet Project

Here’s what a TV news anchor wrote after their Private Screening of work-in-progress scenes from the feature film.

“I feel like a different person. I can’t really seem to express what it is I feel except that I know there’s a change. It took me a few days to put it into words – the emotion is so overwhelming. It’s like I haven’t really seen everything around me until today, and I’m saddened by the loss of all the years I’ve wasted, and yet relieved I realized what I’ve been missing all these years just in the nick of time.    You know this is monumental.”

About & Contact

PAINTINGS:
To be right in front of a large painting and touch it, can be a quite a feeling.
Curious?
My paintings have always been
acquired directly in Private Viewings,
rather than through galleries.

Every painting of mine has sold.
Pricing patterns were established
as a buyer's market from the start
four decades ago, by a Toronto 
Stock Exchange Governor and a Bay 
Street investor, both art collectors.

“Violent” was the first word that came
to mind for a film studio department head upon seeing River Ice paintings from
THE INDIGO CADRE collection.

Collections on four continents own
my work. As a result, paintings are
rarely available for shows:

The book Fiery Vision Bright was produced along side a 1995 retrospective show at the University of British Columbia, in Vancouver.

FILM:
I am making a feature film that is now in post production. This film and the Indigo Cadre paintings are two parts of
THE BEGGARS BANQUET PROJECT.

One viewer said “There is a reverence in Terry’s film that is extremely raw.”
As the former Chairman of the Toronto International Film Festival, Allen Karp, said, “Terry Black is creating a whole new genre.”
One other viewer said, “After the film I felt such a stillness and calm
that I didn’t want to speak or move”.
