Harry Anderson Paintings

American, 1906-1996

Harry Anderson was a Scottish artist born in Fife. He as a pupil and life long friend of Charles Pulsford RS. He attended Edinburgh College of Art in the early 50s under Pulsford, where he met his wife Sally. They then moved to London briefly in 1954 and then to Harlow, in 1960. Anderson lived and worked in Harlow for the last 40 years of his life with a studio at Parndon Mill. He died in the summer of 2002 with an unfinished painting still wet on his easel. Contemporaries of Harry Anderson considered him a significant British artist of that generation, an early exponent of abstract expressionism, producing energetic, organic abstracts based on observation of his environment. Anderson regularly exhibited at the Gibberd Gallery in Harlow. “The most important exhibition of modern art in Edinburgh for the last 20 years,” said Sir Richard Demarco in opening the retrospective exhibition of Harry Anderson at the Randolph Gallery in Dundas Street, Edinburgh, January 2007.
