λ Helen Brough (British 20th/21st century)Lightscapes - Lamp Black, Lemon Yellow Pastel Signed and dated 19 (lower right)12 x 12cm (4½ x 4½ in.)This series of Lightscapes is an aesthetic exploration into how subtle light is perceived by our eyes and interpreted as different colours. Helen Brough graduated from the Chelsea School of Art and was awarded the Arts Council Grant in 2020. Brough has exhibited internationally in New York, Sweden and the USA. This current body of work was exhibited with the Nordic Art Agency in Malmo, Sweden in 2019. "My subject matter is nature, whether it is about light, landscape or a flower I am inspired by the natural world. What I am seeking is not the real or the unreal but something intangible".Curator's Comment I We do not always have enough wall space for art but these works by Helen Brough would look fantastic on a shelf. It doesn't always have to be candles and photos, why not experiment with these fun and exciting injections of colour to brighten the space.

Aboudia Abdoulaye Diarrassouba (Ivorian, born 1983)Head (2014) signed 'Aboudia' (lower left); bears Jack Bell exhibition label (verso)acrylic and oil pastel on canvas200 x 125cm (78 3/4 x 49 3/16in).Footnotes:Now an internationally acclaimed artist, the epic scale of this painting reminds us of Aboudia's creative roots. He trained as a mural painter at the Technical Centre of Applied Arts in Bingerville. His characteristic naïf style is inspired by the graffiti tagged on the walls of his neighbourhood by local kids. Aboudia feels a strong connection to these youths, having also left home as a teen. His family objected to his artistic aspirations, and so he set out to pursue his dream alone. He often spent time at the Abobo railway station, a meeting point for many marginalised youths. The walls were a place to experiment. Aboudia says that tagging the streets allowed 'these kids to express what was deep within them. It occurred to me - because I had also been there - to try to transmit the message portrayed by their pictures on canvas'.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

What is less well known is that following his retirement he began a new career as a talented artist.'When my father retired as the president, he didn't have much to do. I think for him, art was a good way of expressing himself or trying to come to terms with his history and his (I wouldn't want to say) demons, but just coming to terms with his whole life.'Makaziwe Mandela. Some of these original drawings were then reproduced as editions of lithographs 'My Robben Island' in 2002 and 'Reflections of Robben Island' in 2003. The above drawing of a Cape Aloe was produced at this time but was not used for the edition of lithographs, it remained in the collection of the Mandela family.The Cape Aloe (Aloe ferox) is found throughout Nelson Mandela's homeland of the Eastern Cape of South Africa. The hardy plant, not unlike the artist, can withstand the harshest of conditions. Nelson Mandela selected this subject from one of the many plants that populate the rolling hills around his home in Qunu. The red spear-like flowers emerge early in the Southern African winter and are in full bloom by the time of his birthday, their fiery colours bring a visual warmth to an otherwise bleak landscape.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
