Overview

Cristea Roberts Gallery is delighted to announce that it is now the exclusive representative for prints from the Patrick Heron estate. The gallery will stage its first solo exhibition of works by Patrick Heron (1920 – 1999), one of the most innovative figures in twentieth-century British art, from 28 January – 5 March 2022. 

Patrick Heron, Shaping Colour: Prints 1956–1999 will explore the full evolution of his printmaking oeuvre, bringing together almost fifty years of graphic works. The forty prints on display, which come directly from the artist’s estate, begin with his first experimentation in the medium in 1956 and end with the final work he made in 1999 for The Brushstroke Series, completed on the morning of the day that he died.
