John Plumb
BambooSigned and inscribed verso
Acquired directly from the artist
In 1961 John Plumb exhibited alongside Richard Hamilton, Bernard Cohen, William Turnbull and Eduardo Paolozzi at Theo Crosby's temporary building for the opening of International Union of Architects Congress (IUAC); that same year as in 1960 he had exhibited at the influential Situations Exhibition which had a considerable impact on English art and launched the careers of some of our most esteemed artists. It was a period of much innovation, which much influenced Plumbs work.
