Bridget Riley Curves
Best seen as large as possible
I would like to dedicate this final shot from my my visit to the Bridget Riley show in London to my good friend Philip Male who hates abstract art , but you never know this might win him over
I have posted shots of her Black and White work and her large coloured works. This final posting shows two of her works were she plays with curved lines. These were the paintings that completely amazed and delighted me . She manages to create within two dimensional static paintings works that have not only a feeling of depth and texture but seem to move and shimmer in front of your eyes . Its a time in the year to make lists I am sure that the Riley show was my personal cultural highlight of last year
The Hayward Gallery in London is currently holding a large retrospective on the work of the
artist . Bridget Riley CH CBE was born in 1931 its been a long working life and she is still creating new works .The exhibition traces both the origins and the evolving nature of Riley’s innovative practice, the exhibition brings together the artist’s iconic black-and-white paintings of the 1960s, expansive canvases in colour, early figurative works and recent wall paintings.
The exhibition is on at the Hayward until late January well worth a visit if you are in London
THANKS FOR YOUR VISITING BUT CAN I ASK YOU NOT TO FAVE AN IMAGE WITHOUT ALSO MAKING A COMMENT. MANY THANKS KEITH. ANYONE MAKING MULTIPLE FAVES WITHOUT COMMENTS WILL SIMPLY BE BLOCKED
