Joe Tilson

28 Mar — 21 Apr 2007

Joe Tilson, one of the leading figures associated with the British Pop Art movement, will be the subject of an exhibition at Waddington Galleries, London running from Wednesday 28 March - Saturday 21 April 2007.

The exhibition, a retrospective covering four decades, includes 18 works dating from 1963 to 2003. During this period, having drawn on his experience as a carpenter and joiner in the '40s, Tilson produced wooden reliefs and constructions, often brightly coloured, as well as his multiples, prints and paintings. From the mid-60s, Tilson's Geometry? and Ziggurat (or Zikkurat) works revealed his preoccupation with language, puzzle-making, visual play and symbols.
