Provenance: Eleven, London Exhibited: London, Eleven, Olly & Suzi, Wilddog, 21 November 2007-12 January 2008 Olly Williams and Suzi Winstanley work collaboratively, specialising in wildlife painting. The pair began working together in 1987 after meeting as students at Saint Martin's School of Art. The pair moved to New York and were granted a scholarship to Syracuse University between 1988-1989. Olly and Suzi's body of work closely studies the movements of predators and prey in their natural habitat in some of the most remote places in the world. The pair have been known to include paw prints and bite marks in their work caused by the animals themselves. Olly noted that their view of animals was influenced by the romanticised philosophy of American Indians - creatures were all brothers, dinner and gods, a complex mystical and practical vision of nature. Works by Olly and Suzi have been exhibited worldwide including galleries such as Simon Dickinson and the Natural History Museum in London. ? indicates that this lot may be subject to Droit de Suite royalty charges.
