Peter de Francia. Art World Drawings

12 March - 25 April 2009

James Hyman Gallery is pleased to present our third exhibition of works by Peter de Francia and the first London exhibition since his solo show at Tate Britain in 2006. Peter de Francia. Art World Drawings follows the recent exhibition Peter de Francia. Modern Myths, which toured the United States in 2008.

Peter de Francia is widely acknowledged as one of the most powerful voices in British art of the last half century, acclaimed for political works such as his celebrated painting The Bombing of Sakiet (1959), and famed for his powers as a draftsman, exemplified by his Disparates drawings. However, de Francia's works also include more gentle satires and the present exhibition, Peter de Francia. Art World Drawings includes such drawings spanning the 1950s to recent years.


Peter de Francia. Art World Drawings is the third solo exhibition of Peter de Francia's work at James Hyman Gallery and follows our exhibitions Peter de Francia: after the bombing (2005) and Peter de Francia. Portraits (2006).
