Patrick Heron [British Abstract Painter, 1920-1999]

Biography

Patrick Heron was an English artist born in Leeds in 1920, he studied part-time at the Slade School of Fine Art (1937–1938) and worked as an assistant at Bernard Leach's Pottery in St. Ives (1945). He taught at the Central School of Arts and Crafts in London (1953–1956) and worked as an art critic on the New Statesman. His early work was influenced by Henri Matisse and consisted of figurative studies, but later on he developed an abstract style using unusual colours and intricate patterns.

Patrick Heron was formerly also a textile designer and writer on art. He was the son of T.M. Heron, founder of Cresta Silks and Christian sociologist. Lived at St Ives 1925–30. He studied at the Slade School of Fine Art, London, between 1937 and 1939. His painting was interrupted by the war; in 1945 he settled in London and began to paint again. (continued on the bottom)

In 1956, he turned to abstract art under the influence of American abstract painting and returned to Cornwall where he lived and worked until his death in March 1999. On 24 May 2004, the Momart warehouse fire destroyed a number of Heron’s most important works.
