Not everyone knows Gus Van Sant<\/a> as a painter but the f\u00eated American auteur and photographer has been dabbling in the medium since his childhood in Connecticut. He even undertook a dual major in painting and film at the Rhode Island School of Design in the 1970s, before dropping painting to focus purely on cinema. If you\u2019ve watched his beloved 1997 drama <\/span>Good Will Hunting<\/span><\/i> then you\u2019ve already seen one of his works: the brooding watercolour of a rowing boat at sea, propped on the office window sill of Robin Williams\u2019 Dr. Sean Maguire and dissected by Matt Damon\u2019s Will during the pair\u2019s first therapy session. (Van Sant gave the painting to Williams after filming wrapped, and it was sold through Sotheby\u2019s last year for $90,000.)<\/span><\/p>\n

After decades of painting sporadically, the 66-year-old polymath has devoted more time to the pursuit in recent years, showing his work around the globe at galleries including <\/span>Le Case d’Arte in Milan, the Mus\u00e9e de l’Elys\u00e9e in Lausanne and the Gagosian in Beverly Hills. Last week, meanwhile, saw the opening of Van Sant\u2019s very first New York solo exhibition at Vito Schnabel Projects in Greenwich Village. Titled <\/span>Recent Paintings, Hollywood Boulevard <\/span><\/i><\/a>and featuring a series of nine, seven-foot-tall watercolours on stretched linen, the show is centred around Los Angeles, where Van Sant first established a home in the 1970s and has lived, on and off, ever since.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The works offer a trippy, soft-hued look at LA life, as viewed through Van Sant\u2019s unique lens. Vito Schnabel\u2014a gallerist and art dealer, as well as the son of another celebrated painter-cum-filmmaker, the American artist Julian Schnabel\u2014aptly described it to <\/span>The New York Times<\/span><\/i> as \u201ca kind of crazy psychedelic walk through Gus\u2019s time in California.\u201d Nude male figures traverse the canvases: in one painting a figure hovers mysteriously above a car, as if levitating, while in another a giant protagonist looms over an oneiric rendering of the LA cityscape like a buff, hairless King Kong.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":79842,"id":79842,"title":"1","filename":"1-e1568646706853.jpg","filesize":149392,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/gus-van-sant-watercolours\/1-23\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"1-23","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":79837,"date":"2019-09-16 15:08:48","modified":"2019-09-16 15:25:00","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":868,"height":1102,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","thumbnail-width":76,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","medium-width":868,"medium-height":1102,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","medium_large-width":868,"medium_large-height":1102,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","large-width":868,"large-height":1102,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","1536x1536-width":868,"1536x1536-height":1102,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","2048x2048-width":868,"2048x2048-height":1102,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":9,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/1-e1568646706853.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":868,"wpvr_mobile-height":1102}},{"ID":79846,"id":79846,"title":"5","filename":"5.jpg","filesize":169821,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/gus-van-sant-watercolours\/5-13\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"5-13","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":79837,"date":"2019-09-16 15:08:55","modified":"2019-09-16 15:18:44","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":888,"height":1200,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","thumbnail-width":71,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","medium-width":888,"medium-height":1200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","medium_large-width":888,"medium_large-height":1200,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","large-width":888,"large-height":1200,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","1536x1536-width":888,"1536x1536-height":1200,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","2048x2048-width":888,"2048x2048-height":1200,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":9,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/5.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":888,"wpvr_mobile-height":1200}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"4","caption":"Left: Untitled (Hollywood 7), 2019.

The effect is ethereal and enticing, enhanced by Van Sant\u2019s loose, abstracted style and delicately rendered swathes of pastel, punctuated by sharper tones. Speaking to <\/span>SLEEK,<\/span><\/i> Schnabel says of the paintings, \u201cI was drawn in by their dreamlike quality. There is something indescribable about the combination of Gus\u2019 draftsmanship and the use of watercolours on linen. The paintings are beautiful and unusual.\u201d Schnabel, who first met Van Sant through his father when he was just a teen, bumped into the director at a party and, after seeing some pictures of Van Sant\u2019s new work, paid him a studio visit the very next day. Instantly moved by the watercolours, which he felt had an air of Chagall and Matisse, Schnabel promptly invited Van Sant to exhibit in his New York space.<\/span><\/p>\n

But while the paintings are certainly aesthetically pleasing, they are also disconcerting: as the exhibition text reads, \u201croads, buildings, vehicles, and body parts dissolve into one another, yielding a persistent sense of displacement.\u201d The plight of the outsider has long fascinated Van Sant, who has explored the theme with empathy and a coarse romanticism throughout his oeuvre. Think: <\/span>Drugstore Cowboy<\/span><\/i>\u2019s gang of peripatetic drug addicts, robbing pharmacies across the Pacific Northwest; the young protagonists of <\/span>My Own Private Idaho<\/span><\/i>, down and out on the streets of Portland; the angst-ridden and introverted teen skater at the heart of his 2007 thriller, <\/span>Paranoid Park.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

In Los Angeles today, homelessness is increasing at an alarming rate, and the paintings’ isolated figures appear to reflect that, while Van Sant also conveys the paradoxical glamour and sense of aspiration that the so-called City of Angels embodies. The artist has noted in various interviews that, during the painting process, he realised that his muscular males resembled the golden Oscar statuette, and it\u2019s also tempting to interpret his inclusion of certain architectural landmarks within the pieces\u2014like the Griffith Observatory, a star-gazing hub, or the iconic Capitol Records building, topped as it is by a light that spells out \u201cHollywood\u201d in morse code\u2014in this vein.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":79847,"id":79847,"title":"6","filename":"6.jpg","filesize":129038,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/gus-van-sant-watercolours\/6-11\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"6-11","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":79837,"date":"2019-09-16 15:08:57","modified":"2019-09-16 15:26:13","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":941,"height":1200,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","thumbnail-width":75,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","medium-width":941,"medium-height":1200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","medium_large-width":941,"medium_large-height":1200,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","large-width":941,"large-height":1200,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","1536x1536-width":941,"1536x1536-height":1200,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","2048x2048-width":941,"2048x2048-height":1200,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":9,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/6.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":941,"wpvr_mobile-height":1200}},{"ID":79843,"id":79843,"title":"2","filename":"2.jpg","filesize":121463,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/gus-van-sant-watercolours\/2-14\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"2-14","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":79837,"date":"2019-09-16 15:08:50","modified":"2019-09-17 10:59:19","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":868,"height":1200,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","thumbnail-width":69,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","medium-width":868,"medium-height":1200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","medium_large-width":868,"medium_large-height":1200,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","large-width":868,"large-height":1200,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","1536x1536-width":868,"1536x1536-height":1200,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","2048x2048-width":868,"2048x2048-height":1200,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":9,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/2.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":868,"wpvr_mobile-height":1200}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"4","caption":"Left: Untitled (Hollywood 12), 2019.

But nothing in the paintings is explicitly spelt out for us. As beguiling as they are perplexing, they are possessed of the same rugged poetry that defines Van Sant\u2019s films\u2014and represent another facet of the director\u2019s singular, yet variously realised mode of expression. As one of the great experimental storytellers of our time, Van Sant has never been satisfied with repeating the same process again and again\u2014after the commercial success of <\/span>Good Will Hunting<\/span><\/i>, for instance, he famously surprised audiences with a shot-by-shot remake of <\/span>Psycho<\/span><\/i>, with a far more niche appeal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Similarly\u2014as Schnabel tells us, when asked what he hopes viewers will take away from the show\u2014Van Sant has other of styles of painting that he is yet to show, and has lately been exploring other media. \u201cI hope visitors want to see more,\u201d says Schnabel. \u201cGus has painted for over four decades and his work spans many different styles and many different types of materials. This exhibition explores just one avenue of his artistic practice, so I hope by introducing people to it through this body of work, we’ll draw them into a longer and broader conversation with his art generally.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_area","text_area":"
