{"product_id":"ryrie-john-untitled-pig-18503","title":"John Ryrie 'untitled (pig)'","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrawn to the woodcuts prints of late 19th century Edvard Munch (the artist best known for ‘The Scream’), Japanese artist Shiko Munakata and the work of William Blake, John Ryrie has established himself as an adept storyteller through the medium of printmaking. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn his 2011 linocut, Ryrie creates an imaginative scene infused with an intriguing sense of narrative. At the centre of the page stands a pig, whose gigantic size is suggested by the small girl it towers over. Miniscule by comparison, the female figure approaches the animal with a ladder - as if wanting to climb on the pig's back. Infused with the artist's fascination with stories, and his signature sense of humour, this work is classic Ryrie. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRyrie is an esteemed printmaker. He was awarded the Grand Prize in the Silk Cut Award for Linocut Prints and a finalist in the Geelong acquisitive print awards, and is represented at the National Gallery of Australia. For collectors of contemporary prints and visual storytelling, this work is a joyful discovery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/collections\/john-ryrie\"\u003eJohn RYRIE\u003c\/a\u003e (1961 - )\u003cbr\u003e'untitled (pig)' 2011\u003cbr\u003elinocut on paper\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eImage Size\u003c\/i\u003e: 11 x 21 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions\u003c\/i\u003e: 21 x 28 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSigned\u003c\/i\u003e: Signed 'John Ryrie', editioned, dated lower margin\u003cbr\u003eComes with Letter of Provenance\u003cbr\u003eCondition:\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(c) John Ryrie \/ Copyright Agency \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art and Collectors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50992347217990,"sku":null,"price":360.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/ryrie-john-untitled-pig-18503.jpg?v=1794359353","url":"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/products\/ryrie-john-untitled-pig-18503","provider":"Art and Collectors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
