Footnotes

  • "Alterations are frequent, shapes amalgamate or divide, new colours are superimposed or old ones intensified. These alterations are caused by the reaction of the painter to the physical aspect of his work, and to the demands that they seem to make as well as to the mood that they create within him. It is the ability to develop and finally unite both mood and structure that gives to that work its meaning and identity." (Adrian Heath, Introduction to Statements Exhibition, I.C.A., 1956, quoted in Adrian Heath, Recent Paintings, Hanover Gallery, London, 1959).
