Keywords
Fleming’s work is characterised by the particular focus on composition which is evident in his work through all genres. Often painting the local countryside or coastline, he would occasionally delve into a type of landscape painting which borders on abstraction. Fleming was also a very talented portraitist.
Ian Fleming was a member of several exhibiting societies and became the Royal Scottish Academy’s longest established member. Shortly after arriving in Aberdeen he played the key role in the revival of the Aberdeen Artists’ Society, which had lain moribund since 1939. Its annual exhibition has since flourished as a leading event in Aberdeen Art Gallery’s calendar. After retiring in 1971 he became the enthusiastic Founder and Chairman of Artspace and Peacock Printmakers.
