Patrick Heron Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, Draft draughtsman, b. 1920 - d. 1999

Born in 1920, British artist Patrick Heron is known worldwide as an accomplished art critic and writer. Painter Patrick Heron designed his first silk screen in 1938, five years after he began his apprenticeship with Paul Cezanne. His first solo exhibition was at the Redfern Gallery, London, in 1947. His silkscreens are color-rich with sharp lines and edges, and show his skill with abstract interpretation. Subsequent influences by the American Abstract Expressionists emerge in his mid-1950s paintings Square Leaves and Winter Harbour.

While exhibiting at the John Moores Prize Exhibition in Liverpool in 1957, artist Patrick Heron won first prize. Landscape, seasonal, and still-life themed artwork is the primary focus of most Patrick Heron abstract paintings for sale. His piece Winter Harbour , among others, is still replicated in print. Challenge your perceptions of conventional artistic beauty by browsing through thought-provoking mid-century abstract paintings online.

    § PORTHIA PRINTS, ST. IVES

    Est: £400 - £600

    PORTHIA PRINTS, ST. IVES SET OF THREE TABLE LINENS PATRICK HERON C.B.E. (BRITISH, 1920-1999) Screenprint on linen; and two further screenprints on linen, Abstract Design (Lime & Black) and Red Crown (3) 31cm x 45.5cm (12.25in x 18in) From the Estate of an important St. Ives Artist. In an attempt to gain publicity for the growing St. Ives art scene in the 1950s, Denis Mitchell and his brother formed the company Porthia Prints. They encouraged local artists to submit original designs, which would then be screen-printed onto pieces of linen and sold as table mats. At least 17 painters and sculptors took part in the project and put forward designs to be produced on linen fabric. 13 table mats were selected and, by 1955, they were being produced and sold exclusively through Heal & Son Limited of London. The artists featured were John Wells, Peter Lanyon, Terry Frost, Roger Hilton, Robert Adams, William Gear, Denis Mitchell, Michael Snow, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Patrick Heron, Barbara Hepworth, Stanley Dorfman and John Forrester. By 1957 Alexander Mackenzie, Trevor Bell and Agnes Drey had been added to the team. The results were unveiled to the public on 1st March 1955 at the exhibition Abstract Designs at Heal’s Mansard Gallery.

    Patrick Heron CBE, 1920-1999, 'Mini March III; 1974'

    Est: £7,000 - £10,000

    § Patrick Heron CBE 1920-1999 'Mini March III; 1974', signed, titled and dated verso, gouache on paper, 18cm x 23.8cm Provenance: Purchased from Waddington Galleries, Cork Street, Mayfair, 6th June 1975; Private collection, West Sussex Patrick Heron was born in Leeds but moved to Cornwall with his family in 1925, where his father set up a garment factory in Newlyn Harbour. This blossomed into Cresta Silks in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, where Heron made some remarkably successful designs. In 1937 the artist began a part-time study at The Slade School of Fine Art before working as an agricultural laborer during the war. From 1944 - 5 he was an assistant at Bernard Leach Pottery, St Ives, where he met Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson. In 1945 Heron married his childhood sweetheart Delia Reiss and they lived in Holland Park, London, spending their summers at a house on the sea wall in St Ives. After working as an art critic for the New English Weekly for two years, Heron had his first solo show at the Redfern Gallery, London in 1947. In 1953 he started a teaching job at the Central School of Arts and Crafts in London and in 1956 moved to Cornwall, settling at Eagle's Nest in Zennor. Heron inherited Ben Nicholson's studio overlooking Porthmeor beach at St Ives. Heron was recognised as one of the leading painters of his generation making a significant contribution to the dissemination of modernist ideas of painting through his critical writing and primarily his art. His early work was influenced by that of Georges Braque and Henri Matisse however, in the mid-fifties the artist developed an incredibly unique painterly style that harmoniously fused vivid pigments and intricate patterns. He became devoted to the analyses of natural forms and colours; evident from his abstract works, particularly those made up of horizontal or vertical stripes or with softer-edged shapes, where colour is used to express the pleasure of sight. Heron was awarded the Grand prize at the second John Moores Liverpool Exhibition at the Walker Art Gallery in 1959 and the Silver Medal at São Paulo Biennale VIII in 1965. Exhibitions include the Redfern Gallery, London, the Bertha Schaefer Gallery in New York in 1960, Bonython Art Gallery, Sydney in 1973 and the inaugural exhibition of the Tate St Ives in 1993. In 1998 Heron was given a retrospective at the Tate Gallery, London and today his work can be found in many important public collections such as in the Tate Gallery, St Ives and the National Galleries, Scotland.
