Comparison of Giorgio Morandi and Jude Rae


Giorgio Morandi , Natura Morta, Oil on canvas, 1929


Jude Rae, Oil on Linen Australian contemporary artist











The still life paintings by contemporary Australian artist, Jude Rae, show a clear influence of Italian Modern artist Giorgio Morandi. Both artists create compositions based on common everyday objects such as bottles, boxes, jars, jugs and in Rae's case fire extinguishers. Both artists reflect an intensity of observation and a distinctive use of light in and both artists have depersonalied the objects by removing their labels.
