Oh de Laval Hereditary I, 2021 Acrylic on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Oh de Laval (born Olga Pothipirom, 1990, Warsaw) is half Polish, half Thai. She likes "seeing what people are afraid of and why," an interest that culminates in overtly sexual painting that challenges the viewer. Laval seems to delight in the melange of awkward apprehension and floundering rage her work instills in British viewers, whilst noting the inverse reaction in international audiences. Laval's self professed manifesto dictates that the painter should have an inarticulate desire for something beyond the daily life; they should explore old artists' way of living rather than studying their way of painting and they should never ask for feedback on an unfinished painting - other opinions will affect the work and the artist will end up trying to please others. There's evidence to say Laval upholds these manifesto commitments: she's heavily influenced by Francis Bacon, however this is not a direct, technical or stylistic influence, she speaks of how she likes the way he lived, likes the risk and the hedonism. In Bacon's words "the art that has no balls has no value," Laval's deliciously unsettling work would certainly have interested him. Finally, Laval states "I'm not calling myself an artist, I'm a painter. I'm the only one who knows which one of my paintings is art and which one isn't [...] It's art for me." This unabashed egoism is what makes Laval so appealing, her work is unfiltered and, in an age awash with anxiety and self-doubt, her sultry, divisive compositions shine through.Laval studied for two years at the Academy of Fine Arts Warsaw, before moving on to study sociology at the University of Warsaw, where she became fascinated by Durkheim's notions of deviance, something that influences her work today.

A Second World War Archive Relating to Changi P.O.W. Camp, Singapore, collected by prisoner Captain Harry Edward Witheford (1912-2008) and including his framed group of medals comprising 1939-45 Star, Pacific Star, Defence and War Medal, Indian Office letters and a Short Statement of Service, his commission as Lieutenant O.M.E. Indian Army (16.02.1940), his handwritten journal, a 1944 Calendar and two greetings cards signed by Ronald Searle, various other sketches showing life in camp and hand drawn greetings cards, various group and portrait photographs, two published books - The Naked Island, and End of a Hate by fellow POW Russell Braddon, a book - Forty Drawings by Ronald Searle with inscription to the Withefords from Russ Braddon, a 1952 published volume of It Must Be True by Denys Parsons with illustrations by Ronald Searle, related magazines etc.Footnote :- Captain Harry Edward Witheford 1912-2008Harry served under Lt-Col Charles Anderson in the 45th Brigade of the Indian Army. He became a prisoner of the Japanese in Malaya after the fall of Singapore in 1942. He was imprisoned in the notorious Changi prison, and was forced to work on the Siam-Burma railway along the River Kwai. Harry made many friends among his fellow prisoners including Ronald Searle. He was also friendly with the Australian author Russell Braddon, then a Gunner in the 2/15th Field (Artillery) Regiment. Braddon later recounted his experiences as a POW in the bestselling memoir, The Naked Island (illustrated by Searle). The book was one of the first to describe in grim detail the appalling treatment the POWs received. Braddon talks about Harry in several places in the book. He records how impressed he was by Harry's knowledge of the stars, production engineering and turbo jet-engines, but the most moving description comes near the end of the book. After completion of the railway line from Bangkok to Rangoon, Braddon describes how he and other survivors were sent by their captors on a long train journey to Kamburi. In this extract Braddon writes: "As I staggered off the train, cramped and ravenous, for we had had no food for two days, I noticed that beside the line ran long rows of huts separated into two areas. In one were white men: in the other black men. Both lots looked shocking. The fence that marked the dividing line between railway and camp was draped with white men only. The natives no longer took any interest in anything. Therein lay the difference. And as I shambled towards this fence, one of the men on the other side crawled under it, dragged me through and greeted me with a warmth I had forgotten existed. It was Harry Witheford. I managed a feeble crack - 'How's your turbo-jet?' I asked - but was a bit overwhelmed. But he, good soul, knew what was required. Leading me firmly round the back of a hut he gave me bananas and boiled eggs - bought on the spot from a Thai - which I devoured frantically lest they vanish. Though I live to be a thousand the warmth of that greeting and the gift of that food after the sterile months of want that had gone before will never leave me." (pp.207-208)Harry survived the war then spent time working in Kenya during the 1950s. He and his family returned to the UK, settling in North Yorkshire. Both Harry and Edna had a long and happy life until their deaths in their mid-nineties
