About the Item

This is a beautiful serigraph by the noted artist Robert Heindel (1938 - 2005). This piece is the only one left of a serigraph "#2 From the Set Design for the Garden of Eros", which is a dance production by the London City Ballet. The "Garden of Eros" is a poem by Oscar Wilde. Serigraph, unsigned, from an edition of 150, artist logo embossed on the low center of the paper, deckled edges. Last one left. Image size: 19.5 x 17.25 in.; on deckled archival paper: 28 x 23.75 in. Robert Heindel's work is held in the collections of the National Portrait Gallery and the Royal Academy of Dance in London, the Glasgow Museum (Scotland), and the Smithsonian Institution and National Portrait Institute in Washington, D.C. In the early 1980’s, Heindel met Andrew Lloyd Webber, for whom he created iconic images for the musical spectaculars "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Cats". He followed those commissions with set and costume designs for the folk ballet "Still Life at the Penguin Café". In 1985 a major exhibition, “The Obsession of Dance by Robert Heindel” was shown at the Royal Festival Hall in London, with HRH The Princess Margaret attending the opening. In the 1990s he expanded his artistic horizons by accepting a commission to design sets and costumes for David Bintley’s "The Dancehouse". He also exhibited in Tokyo almost annually, having gained the attention of His Imperial Highness Prince Norihito Takamado. Reflecting his mastery of diverse art forms, Mr. Heindel painted vibrant images of the traditional Noh and Kabuki theaters in addition to those of avant-garde dance groups. Heindel’s late career focused more on creating paintings of the ballet, working with many of the leading ballet and dance companies including The Royal Ballet, Birmingham Royal Ballet, Rambert Dance Company, American Ballet Theatre and the San Francisco Ballet. He preferred to depict rehearsal periods rather than performance. He had major exhibitions of this work in America, Europe, & Japan. David Bintley, Artistic Director of the Birmingham Royal Ballet stated “Heindel is the greatest painter of dance since Degas”. Noted collectors of his work included Princess Diana, Princess Margaret, Prince Takamado, Princess Caroline of Monaco, Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, Sir Anthony Dowell, Michael Crawford, George Lucas, Harold Prince, and David Bintley.

"An image taken in Pushkar during what was to be a memorable trip and the last link with normality before the pandemic took hold. We travelled around India, the days becoming more and more precious as we got the sense of Covid's restrictive net closing in around the world. The image was finished some months later, while fully in the grasp of a second lockdown. The addition of gold leaf symbolised for me a sense of hope and the spiritual energy with which I will always associate India, and especially Pushkar." - Valda Bailey...
