Waddington Galleries took over the mantle of handling Ben Nicholson in the late 1970s and the exhibitions they produced really showed off how his skills were still very sharp, even once he was well in his eighties. These 'paintings on paper' are largely based around still life works, using the now familiar roster of Ben's studio objects - jugs, glasses, bottles, decanters and mugs - all augmented with delicious notes of colour and stain. Although now approaching half a century in age, they still feel like fresh modernist objects and the large format of this catalogue gives the images real presence.
A very enjoyable catalogue to peruse.
