Although figuration and landscapes do not define the work of Carl E Hazlewood (b 1951) they do, at times, inform it. Nearly two years ago, Hazlewood debuted a series of paintings that until then had never been presented together, even for the artist’s solitary viewing. The show, Demerara Dreaming: Triptych Paintings: 1996 – 2003, ran from February 15 to March 25, 2022 at the David Richard Gallery in New York City. (The gallery would later host shows by Guyana-born artists Arlington Weithers and Carl F Anderson.) Hazlewood’s paintings were astonishing to anyone who had been following his work over the last ten years, or so. The paintings were very small – a result of being ends or cutouts from larger canvases completed during the 1970s and early 1980s, when he says he was “hard at it”.
