Hitch Hiker” also gave him the idea of using his Canadian experience in his work. “I suddenly had a subject that I hadn’t had before,” he said. Canada had always seemed familiar and mundane to him, but now, in London, it became exciting. During his time at Chelsea, and for the next few years, Doig painted what he called “homely” suburban houses, frozen ponds, ski areas, and open fields. The houses in these early paintings look uninhabited and desolate, and you see them through a screen of trees or underbrush, or blurred by falling snow. (He went on to paint architect-designed houses—including Le Corbusier’s Unité d’Habitation in Briey-en-Forêt, France, half hidden behind a screen of trees.) He was painting spaces that you had to make an effort to look into.

In the summer, he went to Canada, where he could stay with his parents and get well-paying jobs painting houses. In 1986, he and Kennedy spent Christmas with his parents at their home in Grafton, a small town on Lake Ontario, four hours west of Montreal. Kennedy had recently lost her job in London at Bodymap, a cutting-edge fashion house that went bankrupt, and a recession in the U.K. meant that new jobs were scarce. She was offered a position with a Montreal fashion firm called Le Château, so they decided to stay. They got married that fall, in the living room of his parents’ house. For the next couple of years, they lived in Montreal. Doig found work painting sets for films—just painting at first, and then designing them. He enjoyed this, but realized that film work was all-consuming, and not what he wanted to do. Eventually, he began spending more time at his parents’ house in Grafton, where he had a painting studio in the barn. “I was quite desperately searching, making things that seemed random,” he said. En 2008, une grande exposition rétrospective lui a été consacrée, organisée par trois musées: la Tate Britain de Londres (février-mai), le musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris (juin-septembre), et la Schirn (Schirn Kunsthalle ou Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt) de Francfort (octobre-janvier). Le musée des beaux-arts de Montréal, en collaboration avec la Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, présente sa propre exposition - la première d'envergure en Amérique du Nord - du 25 janvier au 4 mai 2014. Born in 1959 in Edinburg, Scotland, Peter Doig is a contemporary painter living and working in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago. He is best known for his dreamlike paintings of lakes, canoes, cabins, forests, and more.
