The Alan Cristea Gallery, London, presents Shit and Flowers, an exhibition of work by the London-born painter and printmaker Richard Hamilton (b. 1922) from his "scatalogical period" of the 1970s. The installation features drawings, collages, paintings, lithographs, etchings, collotypes, stage proofs and trial proofs from Hamilton's personal collection.
Shit and Flowers – Highlights of the Exhibition
The title of the exhibition, which is curated by Richard Hamilton, refers directly to Hamilton's “scatalogical” period. Scatalogy is the study of excrement particularly in medicine and forensic science. Many of Hamilton's works are inspired by J. Walter Thompson's 1970s advertising campaign for Andrex toilet tissue. The series includes Flower Piece 1 (1971-1994), Soft Blue Landscape (1979) and Soft Pink Landscape (1980). The paintings depict the toilet paper in all its new colours, in lush country scenes, populated by women dressed in floating garments, holding pieces of coloured fabric.
The exhibition also includes a set of vintage postcards, Esquisse (1972), showing a mountainous Pyrenean landscape where local people squat with their trousers down!
