G.T. BURKE 1926-2015

The paintings of G.T. Burke have been compared to music with structure and color harmonies that create a sense of mystery. Burke delighted in testing the untried in form, texture, and technique. His art evolved over a lifetime of bold exploration across multiple mediums. His works are imbued with a spiritual reverence, drawn from the Baha’i Faith and its central belief in the worth of all religions and the unity of all people and nature. Numerological and symbolic references abound creating a universal connection between all life forms. Combining fine craft and discipline, he created color combinations that seem the abstraction of dreams - art that speaks the language of the soul.
