Peter SudarPeter Sudar‘s portraits initially read as being strongly influenced by social realism, recalling 19th Century Russian painters such as Repin and his French counterpart Courbet. Sudar positions his 21st century sitters in poses made famous by bygone artists, lending them contemporary ‘props’ such as sports jackets, bike helmets and flip-flops which take the viewer by surprise, the anachronisms prompting him to question when the works were made.
