David Hockney (English, b. 1937). Mixed media of oil pastel and paint on paper titled "Birthday Card for Grey Gallery" depicting three pairs of rollerskates whirling in a circle, 1980.Provenance: Grey Art Gallery, New York, "David's Evening on Wheels" benefit auction, April 29, 1980; Private Minnesota Collection.Lot Essay:David Hockney grew up in Yorkshire, England, and received his artistic training at the Bradford College of Art and the Royal College of Art, from which he graduated in 1962 after shaking things up by refusing to write a graduation essay, claiming that his art spoke for itself. This self-assured and cheeky attitude has stuck with Hockney throughout his career, helping him launch himself into early international success. Hockney has worked in a wide variety of styles and media throughout his career, including pop art, prints, drawings, paintings, and digital art. He is best known for his eye-popping acrylic pool paintings, done in celebration of his adopted home of Southern California. In addition to a wide-ranging and prolific artistic career, Hockney has also found success as a teacher and a theorist, and has published several well-received monographs."Celia Musing" and "Celia Elegant" are from Hockney’s 1979 portfolio in collaboration with Gemini G.E.L. in Los Angeles. This portfolio consists of portraits of several of Hockney’s friends, a recurring theme throughout his body of work. It also shows his tremendous versatility as a portraitist, with works in a variety of styles and moods. These two works depict Celia Birtwell, a prominent British textile designer and longtime friend and model of Hockney’s. With spare, almost careless lines, he presents a vivid impression of Celia, chic and cheerful, drifting through an elegant home. The tonality of the lines builds the sense of fleetingness in her poses; it seems that she has briefly paused to contemplate the orchid in front of her before moving on through her day.Sight; height: 29 1/2 in x width: 38 1/2 in.

• MICHAEL UPTON (BRITISH 1938-2002) Michael Upton (lots 123-138)Tiny, intimist interiors and exteriors exquisitely coloured like some latter day Vuillard John Russell Taylor, IntroductionUpton grew up in Birmingham where he attended the College of Art before joining the Royal Academy Schools in 1958. In London he became close friends with David Hockney and Patrick Proctor, shared a flat with nascent pop artist Peter Phillips, and was awarded an RA Leverhulme Scholarship. His work was featured in the influential annual ‘Young Contemporaries’ exhibitions that Phillips masterminded over four years (1959-63). The reviewer of the 1962 show in The Times commented: 'The exhibition fairly bubbles with bright ideas and visual excitement... its weird mixture of impudence, whimsicality and beautifully tender painting is well exemplified by Derek Boshier [and] Michael Upton...' A year later, however, after completing six identical canvases, Upton abandoned painting entirely, turning instead to conceptual art. He spent 1967-68 in New York, the recipient of a grant from the Cassandra Foundation. Others who received grants from the Foundation included John Cage, Bruce Nauman, Christo, Eduardo Paolozzi and Richard Hamilton. Increasingly Upton's interests lay in performance, and in the 1970s he founded London Calling with Peter Lloyd Jones which became an influential part of London's performance art scene. One of his works included burying a number of his paintings on a Dorset hillside. But at the end of 1970s Upton returned again to painting, taking up a teaching role at the RA Schools. In this later period Upton's preference was for small scale works. He often used photocopy or newspaper print as the support and he regularly produced series of images, similar to stills from a reel of film (lots 123-126). Upton considered them 'conceptual paintings', and gained a new fan for his work in John Russell Taylor the influential art critic of The Times. In a review of 1979 Russell Taylor enthusiastically described Upton's paintings as 'tiny, intimist interiors and exteriors exquisitely coloured like some latter day Vuillard', and in his review of the British Council touring exhibition Picturing People, British Figurative Art since 1945, he singled out Upton as one of a handful of 'highly sophisticated stylists'. Also won over to Upton was the critic Mel Gooding who commented on Upton's 'subtle allusiveness (hints of Piero, Vermeer, Sickert)...another way of deepening the game, of adumbrating the mystery. An art of intimations'. As his work evolved so Upton also gave it more loaded political messaging, inspired in part by both his earlier pop art years and current events (lots 129 & 130). But following retirement and his retreat to Mousehole, Cornwall in 1996 his artistic focus shifted. He put aside subversive messaging, urban subject matter and his customarily muted palette. Instead the innate beauty of the local landscape and coastal views became his primary focus (lots 135-138). 123MICHAEL UPTON (BRITISH 1938-2002)THE STUDIO: BED - A PAIRthinned oil on boardeach: 18 x 13cm; 7 x 5in46 x 56cm; 18 x 22in (two framed as one) (2)ExhibitedLondon, Anne Berthoud Gallery (1980s)
