Michael Forster
Michael Forster (1907–2002) was an Anglo-Canadian abstract artist. Born in Kolkata, India, Forster spent most of his childhood in Meerut. He studied first at Lancing College in Sussex and then later at the Central School of Arts (now Central St. Martins – University of the Arts), as well as the Académie Colarossi in Paris. In 1927-1928, he moved to Toronto in hopes of avoiding The Great Depression.
His abstract paintings were created exclusively with acrylics and acrylic polymers, and his work is heavily influenced by the Surrealist movement. In fact, Forster claimed that he never planned any of his compositions, but rather that they were created according to the demands of his subconscious. Canadian art critic Paul Duval deemed him "Canada's pioneer surrealist."
As a painter, Forster wanted to embody the transference of light and the patterns of nature into instinctive abstract forms. Following in the footsteps of John Constable, he took great inspiration from the ever-changing light and cloud formations of the sky.
==Childhood and education==
Forster was born in 1907 in Kolkata (then called Calcutta). Michael Forster spent much of his childhood in the Northern Indian city of Meerut, a land situated in the vast flatness of the Ganges plain. Meerut served as a dramatic visual contrast for Forster, a place of great personal tragedy and loss. His father, Edward Fulham, was a civil servant who died when Forster was seven. His mother, Augusta Fulham, and her lover, Lt. Henry Clarke, were tried and convicted for Edward's murder in March 1913. Clark was hanged while the pregnant Mrs. Fulham was sentenced to life imprisonment and died of heat stroke the following year.
Forster's English relatives enrolled him at Calcutta's La Martinière School until 1921. He then attended Lancing College in Sussex, England. After graduation, he took classes with William Roberts and Bernard Meninsky at London's Central School of Arts and Crafts, as well as additional classes at the Académie Colarossi in Paris.
From 1927-1928, in the hope that the Depression would be less bitter in North America than in England, Forster traveled to Toronto.
