She studied at the University of Aix-en-Provence, France, and returns there often to capture the vibrant light and color found in her paintings. She received a Bachelor of Arts in Art History from the University of Victoria in Vancouver in 1996. She then took painting courses at the Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-id=\"4bdd20a\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4bdd20a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\"Over the past few years, my still lifes have evolved from portraits of flowers to portraits of time. Past, present, and future intertwine simultaneously. My paintings can be summed up as the encounter of the eye at a specific moment. I believe my works should combine light, movement, scent, emotions, the path they send us down, precision, approximation, the opening and closing of a fresh atmosphere... The list goes on and on. I love painting flowers for their ability to encapsulate life, death, and renewal. They have a story and combine past, present, future, dreams, and reality into one final vision, all expressing, I hope, my wonder of Nature.\" Bobbie Burgers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e“Flowers are a base, a starting point, a color, a season, something to hold onto in the face of nothingness. From there, I simplify to color and form, in order to lay bare a myriad of emotions: love, anger, sadness, which are the driving force of the work.” Bobbie Burgers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e“It’s only when my paintings begin to take shape that I imagine the order in which I can group and arrange them. I then have an overview of my work. During a discussion with a friend, I explained to him that I look at my paintings like a photographer who is constantly inclined to refocus and reposition himself: I approach, I move away, I reframe. Like a lens, I adjust my gaze. I have been able to observe how people look at my works. Their eyes scan the entire canvas in order to capture it all. This type of approach is similar to the way a story is told in a novel. The plot is revealed to us from different points of view, and from various angles. It is only at the end, once the book is closed, that the reader has an overview, that he can truly understand and grasp the meaning of the work.” In a way, my works offer a metonymic vision of reality because the singular motif represents the plural through inclusion, suggesting the belonging of the fragment to a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eFurthermore, my works reflect the creative and psychological excitement I feel in the act of painting. My mind races. In a flurry of activity, I reconsider the work, remove what seems superfluous, add elements, examine carefully, and then contemplate the whole. My mind manages to focus, my eye is satisfied. The composition is harmonious, the parts fit together perfectly. It is a moment of contentment for me; I can then judge my work. The still life is complete, the dialogue is over. » Bobbie Burgers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFloral works and landscapes as inspiration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eBobbie Burger's favorite subjects are still lifes (floral arrangements) in sumptuous colors and her enchanting landscapes. The light that bursts from her paintings, her vibrant and flamboyant colors, her contrasts and textures, as well as the movement, awaken feelings of happiness in us. For Bobbie Burger, flowers express creativity, joy, and elegance. The artist says, \"Flowers are a base, a starting point, a color, a season, something to cling to in the face of nothingness. From there, I simplify to color and form, in order to lay bare a myriad of emotions: love, anger, sadness, which are the driving force of the work.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eHer mediums include large-scale acrylic paintings on canvas, bronze, and mixed media (oils and acrylics on paper). Her work has become richer, denser, and more complex as her ideas have evolved. More recently, her paintings have moved toward pure abstraction, with barely recognizable floral elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Bobbie Burgers has participated in numerous solo exhibitions in Europe, the United States, and Canada. Her artworks can be found in several major collections. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-widget_type=\"heading.default\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-id=\"f170ae3\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f170ae3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003e TO LEARN MORE: \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-id=\"1c13ea9\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1c13ea9 elementor-icon-list--layout-traditional elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\n\u003cul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/westvancouverartmuseum.ca\/exhibitions\/bobbie-burgers-hard-work-spring\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\"\u003eThe West Vancouver Art Museum - Bobbie Burgers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.ca\/elaineprville\/bobbie-burgers\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\"\u003ePinterest - Bobbie Burgers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KgeLyOME2jc?si=3agFikS9jtWS6DF0\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nmXENS9swjw?si=0ujqfC3gQvEa9Zpg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"artiste-contemporain-recherche","title":"Artist wanted","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0724\/0109\/2861\/files\/ZZZWantedArtist_480x480.gif?v=1751865793\" alt=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0724\/0109\/2861\/files\/ZZZWantedArtist_480x480.gif?v=1751865793\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur gallery is currently looking for new paintings to enrich our collection and offer fresh perspectives to our visitors.
