Royal academy of Arts - Burlington Gardens
London, UK |
| From 13 November, the Royal Academy of Arts presents a long-overdue appraisal of Allen Jones’ pivotal contribution to British Pop art. |
| Allen Jones RA spans the artist’s entire career from the 1960s to the present. Comprising over 80 works, the exhibition will feature examples of Jones’ paintings, drawings and sculpture, including the iconic furniture works from the late '60s and new works created especially for this exhibition. Works are grouped into key sequences, revealing connections and common themes that promote a comprehensive understanding of Jones’ wide-ranging artistic practice. |
| Allen Jones is a seminal figure in British Pop art. Along with a cohort of celebrated artists who studied with him at the Royal College of Art in the '60s, Jones brought a new visual language to the British art scene, firmly rooted in contemporary culture and with central emphasis on the human figure. |
