The Late Work, ALAN DAVIE RA (1920 – 2014)
The Scottish painter and musician Alan Davie spent the last three years of life creating paintings and drawings from his home in Hertford. Know for his spontaneous artistic process that shared an affinity with Zen thought, Davie’s improvised works drew on ancient symbolism, myth and magic to create his own semi-abstract forms.
