Description
Patrick Heron is renowned for his sophisticated use of pure colour. This publication looks at two key moments in this British artists career; garden paintings made at Eagle's Nest in Cornwall in the 1950s and a body of late paintings from the 1990s. Focusing on these works foregrounds Heron's achievements. As a painter he fully embraced abstraction at a very early stage in his life. This profound understanding of the nature of painting is revealed in the refinement of line and colour expressed in his mature works of the 1990s.
