Robyn Denny Generations 20 print
Robyn Denny (1930-2014) Generations 20 print. Signed and dated '78 and numbered 22/35. Stained sheet of Arches paper with brushed-on acrylic with aquatint and etched configurations impressed on top from two separate plates. A second different print from the series is also available.
Denny studied at Royal College of Art, London in the 1950s. By the early 1960s, he made a decisive break with the pastoral abstraction of the preceding era and pared down abstract compositions became the bulk of his output. He was influenced by the colour-field abstraction of Rothko and Barnett Newman.
In 1966 Denny was selected, alongside Anthony Caro, Richard Smith and Bernard & Harold Cohen, to represent Britain at the Venice Biennale and by 1973 had become the youngest artist ever to be given a retrospective by the Tate.
Float mounted and framed. 77.25cm wide x 59cm deep.
