This presentation of prints, which all come directly from the artist’s estate, explore scale, composition and, most importantly, the interaction of colour. Heron’s prints often evinced a direct response to the light, colour and shapes that he encountered every day in the idyllic setting of his home in a spectacular location on the Penwith peninsula in Cornwall. With the introduction of screenprint - previously known mostly as a commercial technique - as a fine art medium in the 1960s, Heron adopted the method to achieve clean lines and flattened forms. He defined his new pared down clarity, seen in this selection of screenprints from the 1970s, as “wobbly hard-edge”.
