David Inshaw

Artist: David Inshaw 
Author: Anon. 
Publisher: Arnolfini Gallery 
Date: 1969 
Condition: A single fold card catalogue, with printed images front and inside facing plus artist photo verso, some minor tanning and handling marks and a soft horizontal crease. Generally in good condition.

This exhibition of eleven works at Bristol's Arnolfini Gallery is generally listed as Inshaw's first solo exhibition and is quite a scarce item now. This is especially due to the fact that the work presented is very different from the ruralist and naturalistic landscape painting with which we usually associate him. 

The two paintings illustrated have a much more pop art feel, incorporating text and imagery that is more akin to artists such as Joe Tilson or Colin Self. However, for the Inshaw devotee, this is an important and rare piece of early literature.
