Abstract, British, Three Circles, Black on white by David Andrew, mid Century

About the Item

A very stylish mid 20th Century assemblage work by Cornish St.Ives artist David Andrew 'Three Circles'. The details of the work are as follows: David Andrew (British, 1934) Three Circles Oil on wooden board, assemblage 29.1/2 x 29.1/2 in. (75 x 74cm.) David Andrew was born in Redruth, trained at the Falmouth School of Art and then at the Slade School in London from 1958-9. At that time he was greatly influenced by Ben Nicholson and Piet Mondrian and it was also then that he first became interested in the psychology of perception. Following his student days, Andrew taught at the Bournemouth and Portsmouth Colleges of Art, spending his summers travelling and painting in the stronger light of the Mediterranean and around the coasts of the USA and Canada in a recreational vehicle he transformed into a mobile studio. A further teaching post at Queens University, Canada, followed in 1971 and he remained Associate Professor until 1995. In 2004 Andrew returned to Cornwall and now lives and works in Mousehole.

  • Adrian Heath, British, mid 20th Century abstract in golds and browns
    By Adrian Heath, 1920-1992
    Located in Petworth, West Sussex
    Adrian Heath (British, 1920 - 1992) Golden Brown Mixed media signed ‘Heath 88’ (lower right) 73 x 54 cm. Adrian Heath (1920–1992) was a 20th-century British painter. Heath was born in Burma and attended Bryanston School in Dorset, southern England. In 1938, he studied art under Stanhope Forbes at Newlyn. In 1939 and 1945–47, he attended the Slade School of Art. He served in the RAF as a tail gunner in Lancaster bombers in World War II, but spent almost the entire war as a prisoner of war at Stalag 383. During this period he became friends with and taught fellow POW Terry Frost to paint. In 1949 and 1951, he visited St Ives, Cornwall, where he met Ben Nicholson. In the early 1950s, he was also associated with Victor Pasmore and Anthony Hill. As such he became the main link between the emerging St Ives School and British Constructivism. He was also influenced by D'Arcy Thompson. In 1953 Heath published 'Abstract Painting: its Origins and Meaning' a slim but perceptive volume appraising the development of abstraction by the early moderns. He exhibited at the Musée Carcassonne in 1948, and at the Redfern Gallery...
