达文波特80年代晚期毕业于伦敦的Goldsmith学院,他是参加大明.赫斯特<感性>展览的那一代艺术家之一。自此,他投入了对绘画过程的实践,比如将颜料泼向准备好的画板以达到抽象的效果。我们可以那么想,他其实正在探索的是意外和意图之间的关系,并在这关系中寻找令人信服的异变。
达文波特的绘画制作通过肢体过程:一半是画,一半是行为。他利用家用的光泽颜料,将其倒在铝板上让颜料自然的在表面流下。词语的表达中这听起来只是个简单的次序,但真实的结果是诱人亮丽的。当然,他们比听上去更加复杂。主要成功的因素是他们看上去是那么的接近错误,那些色彩之间的紧张感就像是接吻。他们的存在,能将一个居所盖头换面的力量,给于了他周边环境的另一个观点。1991年他在特纳奖上获得提名。

Ian Davenport是一位画家,在曼城他的作品非常极简抽象,特别是用颜料滴淌的大型壁画作品,控制得惊人的完美。其实,Ian Danvenport是英国近十多年来新绘画的重要代表。在《VITAMIN-P:NEW PERSPECTIVES IN PAINTING》时,Ian Davenport也位列其中,这本著名的画册是由国际上51位权威的批评家和策展人提名和推荐的141位艺术家构成,基本涵盖了西方艺术系统认可的绘画新思维的各个方面,阐释了当今绘画的富足观、拆衷主义和物力论。
Ian Davenport 1966出生于英国肯特郡,1985年毕业于诺斯威艺术与设计学院,1988年毕业于伦敦金匠学院,同年,他参加了由达明赫斯特策划的“冰冻”展,这次著名的先锋艺术展如今被视为英国“YBA”雏形的首次登场,对90年代的当代艺术产生了非常深远的影响。1991年,Ian Davenport获得了“透纳奖”提名,1999年,他是利物蒲约翰摩尔奖得主,现生活工作在伦敦。
Davenport的许多作品是由油漆滴泼到一个倾斜的表面,通过重力的作用自然流淌,形成瀑布一样的抽象画面。他通常使用一种高密度纤维板和铝板,而不是画布,利用注射器将各种彩色油漆滴淌在板上,而不是画笔。他这种独特的创作方法是受到杰克逊波洛克和布里奇特莱利得影响,确实,他的大画幅作品和莱利的条纹绘画有着紧密的联系,同样具有视错觉的迷幻效果。Davenport的绘画制作非常严谨,对各种板材油漆的选择象科学实验,他会精密的计算油漆流淌的宽度比例和色彩的配搭,在理性的制作过程中适度纵然偶然的效果。
