About the artist

Patrick Heron

British

1920–1999

Patrick Heron CBE was a painter, designer, and author who was instrumental to the development of abstract art. He employed the term “non-figurative” to describe his exploration of shapes in vibrant colors. Heron worked to make all areas of a composition into areas of equal importance, turning the English painting convention of narrative, figurative paintings on their head. Born in Yorkshire on January 30, 1920, he attended the Slade School of Art in London. A major retrospective exhibition of his work was held at Tate Britain in 1998, and Heron won the Grand Prize at the John Moores Prize Exhibition in Liverpool in 1959 and the silver medal at the São Paulo Art Biennial in 1965. His work is in a number of important collections, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh, The National Portrait Gallery in London, and many others. He died in Cornwall, England on March 20, 1999, at the age of 79.
