About the Item
William Tillyer’s Recent Paintings
by John Yau
Time has proven William Tillyer to be the most adventuresome painter of his generation. This is no small achievement. In a country known for its masters of landscape and light, and artists such as J.M.W. Turner, John Constable, and Samuel Palmer, Tillyer has extended that glorious tradition into new territory.
Tillyer has attained this by working on different supports, which enabled him to apply paint by various, unconventional means, as well as by bringing together abstraction and figuration in unlikely ways. Rather than accepting and restating the seductive, picturesque current running through landscape painting, he has devoted himself to expanding its limits. This has meant that he has always followed his own trajectory, as well as recognized what Turner recognized in Rain, Steam and Speed – The Great Western Railway (1844) and Georges Seurat, grasped in Bathers at Asnières (1884): technology has not only marked nature but it has become inseparable from it.
In the late 1970s, when many observers still believed painting was dead or, at the very least, exhausted and used-up, Tillyer began applying paint to open, porous surfaces. Over the years, the supports he has worked have varied from widely spaced, stiff architectural cladding to flexible mesh with small perforations. He has splashed and poured paint onto the support, as well as used a brush or pressed gobs of it through the tiny holes. By making the industrial fabricated mesh–or what the artist calls “hardware”–indivisible from the paint, he reminds us that we must take care of our environment rather than regard it solely as something to plunder.

William Tillyer
William Tillyer is a celebrated British painter and watercolourist, whose work has been shown frequently in London and New York since the 1970s. Tillyer was born in Middlesbrough, and studied painting at Middlesbrough College of Art. He then went on to study at the Slade in London. He began to make radically experimental work which raised questions about the relationship of art to the world, and of man to nature. The 1970s saw Tillyer return to printmaking with renewed vigour, using a variety of techniques from etching to five-tone screenprinting, to create lattices that Pat Gilmour, Head of the Print Department at Tate, described as "a cool and unpeopled world...in which to reflect the surrounding flux of nature." He has been invited to work internationally, including Cadiz, Spain; Tobago, Republic of Trinidad and Tobago; Cill Rialaig Project, Co. Kerry, Ireland; Melbourne, Australia, and was a visiting professor at Brown University, USA; Bath Academy of Art; and the Chelsea School of Art. Tillyer has exhibited internationally, and his work can be found in the collections of major institutions including the Arts Council of Great Britain; the Brooklyn Art Museum, New York; Fort Worth Art Museum, Texas; Middlesbrough Art Gallery; MOMA, New York; The Art Gallery of Western Australia, Perth; Tate Gallery, London; and the Victoria & Albert Museum.
