RIP Alex Colville

Horse and Train 1954

Behind his words, as behind his art, you can sense elaborate webs of thought. And, also like his paintings, he stands quite alone, beyond category. It’s impossible to speak with him for a few hours without feeling his powerful sense of self. He is, it seems, a free man.
—Robert Fulford, Regarding Alex Colville, Saturday Night, 17 June, 2000.
