Although best known as a sculptor, Royal Academician Ivor Abrahams
(b. 1935) is also a highly accomplished printmaker. This talk by the artist is timed to coincide with his Tennant Gallery print exhibition Ivor Abrahams: Mystery and Imagination
as well as the London Original Print Fair 2011
.
Abrahams will lead an informal tour of the works on display in the Tennant Gallery, the EA Poe and Edmund Burke portfolios, which he made in the late 1970s - a golden age of printmaking in Britain.
