Patrick Caulfield and Gary Hume parallel shows now open at Tate Britain

    Two parallel exhibitions on DACS artists Patrick Caulfield and Gary Hume have now opened at London’s Tate Britain. The shows will run until 1 September 2013.

    Caulfield and Hume at Tate Britain

    Tate Britain is presenting a survey of the internationally celebrated painter Patrick Caulfield (1936 - 2005), who is best known for his iconic and vibrant use of colour which transformed artistic genres such as the still life.
     
    Tracing the development of Caulfield’s distinctive style, the show features over 30 significant works from key moments in his career.
     
    Iconic pieces such as Dining Recess 1972 (Arts Council Collection) and Interior with a Picture 1985-6 (Tate) are being shown alongside lesser known works and later paintings.
     
    We represent the estate of Patrick Caulfield through our Copyright Licensing service.
     
    Showing in parallel is an exhibition on contemporary painter Gary Hume, who we represent through our Artist’s Resale Right service. He is known for his bold exploration of colour, line and surface, and was a leading figure in the ‘Young British Artists’ group.
     
    Tate Britain brings together 24 artworks spanning his career from 1988. The show features iconic paintings and sculptures alongside less familiar pieces, new works and international loans not yet seen before in the UK.
