R.B. Kitaj: Works on Paper

R.B. Kitaj: Works on Paper
Marlborough Fine Art

«Born in the USA, R B Kitaj studied in London at the RCA with an influential group of students including David Hockney. From 1970, his paintings, drawings and prints have concentrated on the human form. Drawing on his wide reading and preoccupation with Jewish history and identity, his works have been described as "allegorical and depictive, traditional and thoroughly modernist". His importance has been recognised by three international retrospective exhibitions organised in 1981, 1994 and 1998.»
