Five Squares

Richard Allen (1933-99)

A rare silkscreen by the late Richard Allen, who early in his career exhibited alongside Bridget Riley and Peter Sedgley.  His works are seemingly very hard to come by.

A stunning geometric composition in three colours referenced on the artist’s estate website.  An edition of just 25, signed and numbered 3/25 in pencil lower right and dated 96. Titled Five Squares.

The paper is a good quality thick paper.

Allen has works in the Tate, The Government Art Collection, the British Council, the Arts Council of Great Britain among others.

Measurements: 56 x 56 cm

Condition: The work does not appear to have previously been framed and is in excellent condition, a very slight soft crease to the lower right corner tip, and there is a very faint mark towards the top edge of the sheet shown in photos.
