This work, first shown in ‘Sampling’ (Tolarno Nov.1998), plays with 50s decorative masonry patterns.

It remained in the artist’s collection at his death, and was subsequently auctioned in 2008, together with Laminated Bracket 1998 [3/M], Scalloped Bracket 1998 [3/M] and a fourth, ‘spare’ canvas. Many thanks to Peter Anderson of Art Nomad for confirming details and forwarding a good recent photo as shown here (July 2014).
