Sometimes the word 'gallery' simply isn't enough. Yes, it's the core of a business dedicated to the best in painting, printmaking, sculpture and ceramics. But here the books turn into paintings, the paintings turn into films. Watch our short film to find out a bit more about us and what we do.
Cypress Trees, 1988
Gillian Ayres (3 February 1930 – 11 April 2018) was an English painter. She is best known for abstract painting and printmaking using vibrant colours, which earned her a Turner Prize nomination.
Her early works are typically made with thin vinyl paint in a limited number of colours arranged in relatively simple forms, but later works in oil paint are more exuberant and very colourful, with a thick impasto being used.
Signed and dated mixed media on paper.
Including watercolour, acrylic, oil pastel, ink and gouache.
This piece is featured in the 1988 film - Gillian Ayres '88 - where she says when talking about the works that she has made on paper:
In July this year I went to the South of France and I had never been before and I couldn't really do oil paintings like normal... I suppose I did one (of these paintings) a day... it really was intense and I let different things happen. I just sort of let things happen and I wanted to let the place come out really...they (the paintings) were these quick things.
I just wanted to work in a different way.
