About the Item

No 8.69 Ian Fraser Medium - Screen print Edition - 4/12 Signed - Yes Size - 780mm x 585mm Date - 1969 Provenance - From the Andrew Purches collection Condition - Very good. 9 out of 10. Colour of print may not be accurate when viewed on a monitor. Ian Frazer, born on July 11, 1933, in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, later moved to Leeds, attended Leeds Modern School, and graduated from the Royal College of Art in London in 1958. While there, he met fellow artist Ray Fawcett and Anna Dubenska, whom he married in 1962. Initially living in Chiswick, London, they later moved to Shepperton, which was a quiet, rural village in the 1960s. Ian's love for the outdoors, bird watching, and fishing started at an early age, and he continued these passions throughout his life. In 1970, Ian became a visiting Professor of Art at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, where he explored the Midwest landscape. He later drew parallels with the Thames Valley near London. From the early 1970s, Ian sketched the Shepperton landscape, recording changes and the quality of light, leading to the Suburban Landscapes series. The family also enjoyed fossil hunting in Lyme Regis during winter visits. In 1978, they bought a cottage in Dorset, creating a beautiful garden. Ian's exploration of the Dorset landscape inspired his Tranquil Gardens series. In December 1984, the family sold their Shepperton home and Dorset cottage, moving to Shimpling, Suffolk. Ian prepared for retirement as a full-time artist, developing a series of paintings for the commercial market. In September 1986, they moved to Muswell Hill, London, near Middlesex Art School. However, in October, Ian was diagnosed with melanoma and sadly passed away on December 31, 1986, at the age of 53.

  • Geranium
    Located in Llanbrynmair, GB
    ’Geranium’ By Yutaka Takayanagi. Medium - Relief and lithographic print Edition - 5/20 Signed - Yes Size - 510mm x 660mm Date - 1978 Condition - Excellent. 10 out of 10. Born in Tokyo in 1941, Takayanagi's artistic journey began when he enrolled at Tokyo University of the Arts in 1960, studying under the renowned oil painter Kaoru Yamaguchi. His talent was quickly recognized when he received an Honorable Mention at the 8th Shell Arts Award Exhibition in the same year. During his time at university, Takayanagi took an intensive course in copper plate printing under Tetsuro Komai, receiving his degree from the graduate school in 1966. Fascinated by the simultaneous color print method, he started creating copperplate prints and soon gained recognition for his unique metallic reliefs, which he produced using collages of English newspapers. Takayanagi's passion for experimentation led him to create metallic emboss reliefs using his own photographs, and in the latter half of the 1980s, he moved on to silkscreen prints. He continued to push the boundaries of his art, constantly exploring new techniques and mediums. In 1978 and the following year, Takayanagi was appointed as an arts researcher for the Ministry of Culture and traveled to the United States, France, and the UK. These experiences enriched his artistic perspective and further cemented his reputation as a highly regarded artist. Takayanagi was part of the influential printmaking group Sosaku Hanga, which emerged in the early 20th century in Japan. This movement emphasized the artist's involvement in every stage of the printmaking process, from designing the image to carving and printing the blocks. Takayanagi's work often incorporates elements of nature and landscape, with an emphasis on texture and pattern. He also experimented with collage, incorporating found materials like newspaper clippings and photographs into his prints. Takayanagi's work has been exhibited extensively in Japan and internationally, including at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo. He has also received numerous awards for his contributions to printmaking, including the Japan Print Association Award and the Purple Ribbon Medal...
