Life and work

Rémy Noë was born in Bromley, Kent, England, to a Dutch father and English mother, but has lived in Medway for most of his life. 1986-93, he attended Vinters Boys School, which he described as "a living hell, and Chatham Grammar School for Boys. 1993-97, he attended Canterbury College of Art for Foundation and BA in Fine Art, but was forced to leave by the Department of Social Security. 1997-98, he resumed a part-time BA, but was expelled for condemning "conceptual shit" and also threatened with arrest. Since then, he has worked in his father's garage, Medway Citroen.

In 1996, his work was first publicly exhibited in "Indo Gothic", in Chatham, Kent. In 2000, he took part in the first Stuckist demonstration against the Turner Prize outside Tate Britain. [ [http://www.stuckism.com/Tate/Tate00.html "Turner Prize demo 2000"] , stuckism.com. Retrieved 4 April 2008.] In 2001, he founded the Maidstone Stuckists group and was exhibited in the "Vote Stuckist" show that year. He staged fourteen shows of the Maidstone Stuckists works in various venues, includign pubs, libraries and the Maidstone Music School, as well as arranging expeditions of the group for "painting, inspiration and getting drunk". In 2004, his work was included in "The Stuckists Punk Victorian" at the Walker Art Gallery for the 2004 Liverpool Biennial.

He "hates cities", but does frequent Gothic nightclubs in London. He likes to spend time exploring Kent and researching European mythology. Norse and Anglo-Saxon mythology are recurring themes in his paintings, as are historical sites and the countryside in Kent. The use of sacred geometry and his own form of aesthetic geometry are features in his work. The colour and texture of some work "evokes a kind of modern Impressionism." [Prudames, David.
