Swimming, Mother and Child by Tom Hammick, 1998 Additional information: Medium: etching 38.1 x 27.9 cm 15 x 11 in signed, dated and inscribed AP in pencil Camberwell College of Art, MA Printmaking (1990-92), Camberwell College of Art, BA Hons Fine Art (1987-90), University of Manchester, BA Hons Art History (1982-85). Hammick's first solo show was at Eton College in 1992, and was followed by shows at Redfern Gallery, Salisbury Museum and Brighton Museum, as well as shows in Paris, France, and regularly across Canada, The Artist had a three-month residency at The Art Gallery of Newfoundland and Labrador (AGNL), now 'The Rooms', during which he visited the national parks of Terra Nova and Gross Morn, as well as many of the remote costal areas along the eastern shore. Coupled with his time spent in the South Pacific, Hammick can be seen as a lover of grand and remote coastal landscapes. His art deals not only with the dramatic terrain but the frontier mentality of lives imposing civilisation on to wilderness. Having always been a keen printmaker, Hammick is currently the Senior Lecturer in Fine Art, Painting and Printmaking at the University of Brighton. Hammick's work is included in many public and private collections, including that of Deutsche Bank. A monograph on Hammick was published in 2015 by Lund Humphries. "Colour and space dominate. He favours velvety midnight blues, flamingo pinks, and cool greens and greys, a palette not dissimilar to that of the Scottish artist Craigie Aitchison...

One Down by Howard Hodgkin, 1981-2 Additional information: Medium: lithograph with hand-colouring in gouache 91.4 x 121.9 cm 36 x 48 in signed, dated and numbered in pencil Hodgkin was born in London and grew up in Hammersmith Terrace. During World War II he was evacuated to Long Island, New York, for three years. In the Museum of Modern Art, New York, he saw works by School of Paris artists such as Henri Matisse, Édouard Vuillard, and Pierre Bonnard, which he could not easily have seen then in London or Paris. Back in England in 1943, Hodgkin ran away from Eton College and Bryanston School, convinced that education would impede his progress as an artist, though he encountered inspiring teachers at both schools. He then attended Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts (1949–50) and Bath Academy of Art, Corsham (1950–54). Hodgkin never belonged to a school or group. While many of his contemporaries were drawn to Pop or the School of London, he remained independent, initially marking his outsider status with a series of portraits of contemporary artists and their families. His first solo exhibition was at Arthur Tooth and Sons in London in 1962. Two years later he first visited India, following his interest in Indian miniatures, which began during his time at Eton. Collecting Indian art would remain a lifelong passion, which he initially supported by dealing in picture frames. In 1984 Hodgkin represented Britain at the Biennale di Venezia. His exhibition Forty Paintings reopened the Whitechapel Gallery, London, in 1985, and he won the Turner Prize the same year. In 1995–96 Hodgkin had an exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, which travelled to the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Texas; Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen, Düsseldorf; and Hayward Gallery, London. His first full retrospective opened at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin, in 2006 and traveled to Tate Britain, London, and Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid. In the autumn of 2016 Hodgkin visited India for what was to be the last time, completing six new paintings before his return to London. These works were shown at England’s Hepworth Wakefield in 2017, in Painting India, a show that focused on the artist’s long-standing relationship with the Indian subcontinent. Starting in the 1950s, Hodgkin maintained a parallel printmaking practice, translating his visual language into works on paper. Exploring the interactions of color and space on a grander scale, he produced theatrical set designs for Ballet Rambert, the Royal Ballet, and the Mark Morris Dance Group. His black stone and white marble mural...
