Patrick Procktor: The Last Romantic

14 Jan-25 Feb 2016

Overview

Curated by Dr. Ian Massey. The artist Patrick Procktor RA (1936 - 2003) first came to prominence in 1963, when his first show opened at The Redfern Gallery in London. Both critically acclaimed and a near sell-out, the show launched him as a star of the sixties art scene: this was remarkable given that he had graduated from the Slade School of Fine Art less than a year before.
