1950-1954

Hazlitt Holland-Hibbert presents its second solo exhibition of work by Patrick Heron (1920-1999), focusing on a pivotal period between 1950 and 1954 when the artist negotiated his own path between figuration and abstraction. Featuring paintings from the artist's estate - including several never before exhibited - alongside loans from museums and private collections, the exhibition offers fresh insight into a formative chapter of Heron's development. During these years, Heron's practice was animated by sustained engagement with the masters of the School of Paris, particularly Braque, Matisse, and Bonnard, whose preoccupations with plastic and spatial values, and above all colour as space, became the foundation of his own emerging visual language.
