Bernard Jacobson Gallery presents a selection of still lifes by the British artist William Tillyer. This exhibition examines the development of the still life throughout the course of Tillyer's career and unfolds through a variety of media, including watercolours, prints, oil paint and acrylic, and the artist's signature wire mesh, which he incorporated as early as the 1970s. Though the still life is a traditional subject matter, Tillyer's still lifes are unique for their radical combination of figuration and abstraction, reality and illusion - techniques inspired by Paul Cézanne and Georges Braque. As he draws on these twentieth-century artists, so too is he influenced by seventieth-century Dutch still lifes in his representations of flowers in vases and fruit in bowls.
