Angelo Evelyn

[1] In the course of his career, Evelyn resided and maintained studios in Montreal (Canada), Bremen, Paris, Aachen (Germany), Trondheim (Norway), and Rotterdam (The Netherlands).

[2] From May 1966 to February 1967, known as Fred A. Evelyn, he was on meteorological officer training in Ottawa, Toronto, and CFB Trenton with John Gordon, Bob Clibbon, Brian Mason, Dave Philips, Alfred Warkentin, and David Hagborg amongst others.

[7] Having obtained his diploma, the artist moved to Paris in 1983, renting a small studio and engaging in printmaking (using aluminum plates) at the Cité des Artes.

The results of his creative work in Paris were presented in Bremen in 1985 in a large solo exhibition entitled Collage - Print - Stencil.

[8] In 1985, Evelyn moved from Paris to Aachen, Germany, a provincial town close to the Belgian and Dutch border, where he was able to rent a large studio.

Others were apparently tracing memories of tales heard about his father who was a captain in the Canadian navy during the war, in command of one of those ships that protected freighters on their way from North America to Murmansk.

[16] In both 1988 and 1989, Evelyn participated in the annual Høstutstilling, or Statens Kunstutstilling[17] at the no:Kunstnernes Hus or Artists House in Oslo, Norway which is described as the "viktigste" (most important) art exhibition in that country.

[20] And the next year, a group exhibition in the RHoK Art Academy in Brussels, together with two other artists, Niek Satijn and Erik Fliek, that was also shown in Hilversum.

[21] In 1998, Evelyn founded an international print workshop (the Lithografie Werkstatt Eichstaett)[22] together with two other artists, Li Portenlaenger and Armin Nischk.

[23] Simultaneously, the three artists staged the event "200 Jahre Lithographie" in public space and the university as well as in the cathedral Notre Dame de Sacre Coeur in Eichstaett (from July 26 to Aug. 18, 1998).

[25] In September 2005, Evelyn had a joint exhibition in the Atelier Circulaire in Montreal together with the Canadian artist Ana Francine Béland.

[31] An official Eichstaett county (Landkreis Eichstatt) publication refers to him as "this globally renowned artist" ("diesen weltbekannten Künstler").
