RICHARD WALKER

Richard Walker studied Graphic Arts (Camberwell Schooll of Art) and Printmaking (Chelsea School of Art). His studies were completed in 1977, the punk era, a radical influence still present in his work today. More recently and post-September 11 2001, he has introduced more pastoral/mythological elements to his work.

Richard Walker has had regular gallery shows at Minsky's Gallery, Thumb Gallery, Jill George Gallery, New Academy Gallery, Curwen Gallery, London; Madison Galleries, Los Angeles, Galerie Meissner, Hamburg, and White Gallery, Brighton.

He has completed many installation/commissions including a mural at Axis Restaurant, One Aldwych Hotel, London; Three Window Installations, Barneys, New York; Glass Wall Installation, Hyatt Hotel, Warsaw; and The Cow Parade, London.

His recent series of paintings are based on Barack Obama (2008/9) and Alice in Wonderland (2007/8).

Richard Walker is an accomplished printmaker and has produced screen prints and monoprints at all stages in his career. We have a selection of his recent prints at the gallery, ask to see them next time you are here.
