δ David Hockney (b.1937)Gregory (MCA Tokyo 157)Soft and hard-ground etching printed in colours, 1974, signed and dated in pencil, numbered from the edition of 75, printed by Maurice Payne, Kent Jones and Dany Levy, published by Petersburg Press, London, on Inveresk mould-made paper, with full margins, sheet 910 x 700mm (35 3/4 x 27 1/2in)The subject is Gregory Evans: a key figure in the British artist’s personal and artistic career, morphing from lover and studio assistant to curator and trusted adviser. Gregory Evans has remained the constant through Hockney’s ever-evolving practice and continual experimentation as a model he has returned to time and time again, appearing in over forty portraits. The etching here – executed in 1974, the year the pair began an intimate relationship – is imbued with a warmth and affinity for the sitter. Works from this period, from 1965 where line drawing consumed Hockney’s artistic output, are highly sought after owing to their technical difficulty and the power they conjure through their simplicity.δ This lot is sold subject to Artists Resale Rights, details of which can be found in our Terms and Conditions.

Dorothy Mead (1928-1975) oil on canvas - still life after Cezanne, dated '66, 101.5cm x 77cm, framed. Dorothy was born in London in 1928 and trained at the South East Essex School of Art where she met David Bomberg, he recognised her significant talent and she trained under him from 1945-1951, before later attending the Slade School of Art. At the Slade she had considerable academic success, becoming the first woman president of the of the annual exhibiting society, and was awarded the Figure Painting Prize and the Steer Prize. But despite her accolades, she was forced to leave the college and failed to receive a qualification because of her refusal to sit the course on perspective. It was her belief and that of her mentor Bomberg, that this element was invalid in her art, she wrote to William Coldstream declaring ‘perspective is completely alien to me in my work as a painter’. In 1964 the Arts Council England created a series of touring exhibitions titled ‘Six Young Painters’, Dorothy exhibited alongside artists including Peter Blake, William Crozier, David Hockney, Bridget Riley and Euan Uglow. Around this time she joined the London Group of artists, and was their first female president from 1971-1973. She lectured and taught variously at Goldsmiths, Morley College and Chelsea College of Art. Dorothy Mead died in 1975 aged just 46. Her work is held by Tate Gallery, UCL Art Gallery, London South Bank Collection and other institutions. Her work was particularly admired amongst her artistic peers and evokes comparisons to her contemporaries and colleagues Bomberg, Kossoff and Auerbach. Examples are rarely seen in salerooms and this collection, which is by family descent from the artist, represents the largest and most comprehensive collection to appear at auction. Generally good original condition, the canvas has not been lined. Some minor paint shrinkage.

But despite her accolades, she was forced to leave the college and failed to receive a qualification because of her refusal to sit the course on perspective. It was her belief and that of her mentor Bomberg, that this element was invalid in her art, she wrote to William Coldstream declaring ‘perspective is completely alien to me in my work as a painter’. In 1964 the Arts Council England created a series of touring exhibitions titled ‘Six Young Painters’, Dorothy exhibited alongside artists including Peter Blake, William Crozier, David Hockney, Bridget Riley and Euan Uglow. Around this time she joined the London Group of artists, and was their first female president from 1971-1973. She lectured and taught variously at Goldsmiths, Morley College and Chelsea College of Art. Dorothy Mead died in 1975 aged just 46. Her work is held by Tate Gallery, UCL Art Gallery, London South Bank Collection and other institutions. Her work was particularly admired amongst her artistic peers and evokes comparisons to her contemporaries and colleagues Bomberg, Kossoff and Auerbach. Examples are rarely seen in salerooms and this collection, which is by family descent from the artist, represents the largest and most comprehensive collection to appear at auction. Generally good original condition, the canvas has not been lined. Some minor paint shrinkage.

MANUEL TERÁN (Chile, 1974)."Tribute to Kusama and Velázquez".Oil on masonite.Signed in the lower right corner. Signed, dated and titled on the back.Size: 108,5 x 108,5 cm; 131 x 130 cm (frame).In the catalogue of the exhibition "Tribute to the Geniuses", it is stated that "Terán tries to postulate the return of painting as a symbolic strategy. His tributes, which take the form of pastiches, are not. The artists he chooses to pay tribute to are admired by him (Francis Bacon, Banksy, Marc Chagall, Jean Dubuffet, Lucio Fontana, Francisco de Goya, Lucian Freud, Keith Haring, David Hockney, Robert Indiana, Jaspers Johns, Yves Klein, Kusama-Velázquez, Roy Lichtenstein, René Magritte, Roberto Matta, Joan Miró, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Joaquín Sorolla and Andy Warhol). The list could not be more heterogeneous. It does not follow any order. He pays homage to the artists he admires, even if his own work bears no relation to theirs. The heterogeneity of his preferences is patent and proves E. Gombrich right, for whom there is no art but artists. This extreme nominalism leads him to ignore aesthetic categories, as well as chronologies".A Chilean artist living in Spain, with a degree in Fine Arts, Manuel Terán has developed his creative work in the field of the plastic arts and new technologies applied to art. Since he made his name in 1995 at the Salón de Otoño del Círculo de Bellas Artes in Santiago de Chile, he has held solo exhibitions and participated in group shows and fairs in Latin America and Europe. He has been awarded prizes such as that of the Real Academia de San Carlos de Valencia (2004).
