All true artists acknowledge their influences, for the whole of Art is there to be made use of, and Jeremy Gardiner is no exception, openly accepting the long tradition of the British landscape in which he works. But it is, for him, one that is set very much in a modern context. He looks perhaps to John Tunnard, Eric Ravilious and Alexander Mackenzie, and particularly to the metaphysical landscapes of Paul Nash, on the one hand, but quite as much to the more elliptical, conceptual and inter-disciplinary approaches of our own time. And in all of this he remains nothing if not his own man.
