North Branch by John Walker

North Branch by John Walker

The screenprint North Branch relates to a recent series of large oil paintings, painted in 2011, in which grids of bold colour are superimposed on freely applied under-paintings which suggest painterly images of landscapes - a visual language which, unusually, explores boundaries between representation and abstraction.

 

Printed and published by Advanced Graphics London as part of the London Suite II portfolio. Edition of 75.

This work is part of a portfolio of 20 prints produced by Advanced Graphics London in 2012, produced to celebrate 30 years since their first print venture in 1982: The London Suite, prints by ten London-based artists. This second suite includes 20 London artists, including six of the original 1982 contributors and eight RAs, who were all asked to produce screenprints with size being the only constraint. Some works have the addition of woodblock and some have as many as 25 separate printings or layers within the image.
