About the Item
'Desire', from Richard Heeps series, 'A Short History of Milan', featuring a traditional Italian street book kiosk.
A Short History of Milan began in November 2018 for a special project featuring at the Affordable Art Fair Milan 2019 and the series is ongoing.
There is a reoccurring linear, structural theme throughout the series, capturing the Milanese use of materials in design such as glass, metal, wood and stone. Richard has a strong connection to Northern Italy from printing his books in Verona, and he has visited Milan to exhibit many times. The work here is a series he has been sketching ideas for for a while, and is excited to release his first Italian body of work, capturing the spirit of Milan. It sits alongside his Hong Kong, Vietnam and New York series, which depict the colour, fabric and structure of cities with distinct style.
This artwork is a limited edition of 25 gloss photographic print, dry-mounted to aluminium, presented in a museum board white window mount and a choice of black or white box frame fitted with anti-reflective UV70% glass. It is signed and numbered on reverse accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
This artwork is available in other sizes and pairs well with Richard's other artworks so be sure to look at our 1stdibs store to see more of his work.
Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for his subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, portrait or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography without the need for digital manipulation. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he hand prints his colour photography. His work has been exhibited in Museums and Public Galleries around England and he has participated in Art Fairs around the world and his work is now part of many international collections.
