About the Item
L Richards
Blue Cord Composition
Multimedia collage and coloured drawing
20 x 25 cm
Both compositions signed to bottom right
Provenance: Family of A. E. Halliwell
Little is known about the artist L Richards, though the fact that his teacher A.E Halliwell collected this painting suggests that he thought highly of his student. This pair of compositions is extremely intriguing. The first work is a collage of blue cord, mesh, text from a magazine, corrugated cardboard, velvet and what seems to be wall paper. Each element overlaps other elements creating a pleasing sense of flow in this collage, without seeming too overcrowded on the page. The second work is a realist drawing of a collage. Gibbs still includes all the same elements, making use of careful shading to create a sense of three dimensionality. Viewed next to one another and the effect created is striking.

Adrian Heath (1920-1992)
Abstract Study III (1975)
Acrylic and pencil on paper
22x22cm
Heath was born in Burma in 1920 and arrived in England aged five. In 1938 he studied art under Stanhope Forbes at Newlyn and later at the Slade School of Art. While serving in WWII, he was captured and placed in a prisoner-of-war camp in Bavaria. Heath attempted to escape from the camp but was recaptured and placed in solitary confinement; this isolation proved crucial to the development of his artistic style, as he spent much of his time there experimenting with abstract forms.
When released from confinement, Heath befriended a fellow prisoner of war: Terry Frost. Together they explored the methods of painting which they had developed during their time in the camps, and following the war both became celebrated artists. We have several Terry Frost pieces available too.
In 1949 and 1951, Heath returned to Cornwall. He spent time with artists like Ben Nicholson, Victor Pasmore, and Anthony Hill...
