Description

Born in 1939, Patrick Hughes lives and works in London. Widely recognised as one of leading British Artists of the 20th century, he was at the vanguard of the Pop Art movement in the early 1960s. He was the first British Pop artist to receive a solo exhibition in London in 1961 at the Portal Gallery. At the invitation of Richard Hamilton, Hughes’s screen-print ‘Brick Door’ was included in the seminal portfolio published by the Institute of Contemporary Art in 1964. This ground-breaking portfolio featured the screen-prints of 24 notable artists: Patrick Caulfield, David Hockney, Howard Hodgkin, Sir Peter Blake, Robyn Denny, Joe Tilson, Bridget Riley, Sir Eduardo Paolozzi, Victor Pasmore, Harold Cohen, Gordon House, Richard Smith, Bernard Cohen, Gillian Ayres, Derek Boshier, Gwyther Irwin, Peter Phillips, William Turnbull, and Allen Jones. For many of the artists, it was their first experience of print-making, including Hughes, Hockney and Caulfield, all of whom became leading proponents of the medium.

During the 1970s, Patrick started exploring the ‘rainbow’ motif in his printed works. Through these popular and iconic prints as well as his explorations in perspective or ‘reverspective’, he has cemented his place in the pantheon of great 20th century artists.

His work can be found in major public collections worldwide, including the Tate Gallery, London; Institute of Contemporary Art, London; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Denver Art Museum; The British Library, London; the British Academy; London; the Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow; Victoria & Albert Museum, Manchester City Art Gallery; Würth Museum, Künzelsau, and the Baker Museum, Florida.
