Timothy Hyman: Dexter Dalwood: The Torn Line and the Cut Up

About

The recent work of Dexter Dalwood could be seen as a retrieval of ‘History Painting' — but nearly always without figures, and constructed always as a fragmentary collage, out of culturally disparate imagery. Strongly interested in drawing, he will talk about some of the problems and procedures of his own practice. Trained at St Martin's and the RCA, with a stint at Baroda between, Dalwood has emerged as one of the most prominent British painters of his generation. He exhibits at Gagosian, in London and in New York.
