George Hainsworth: A Retrospective

A retrospective exhibition of works by Leeds artist George Hainsworth.

George describes his work as figurative in the most expansive sense. He can go from large paintings of vases of flowers composed of confident gestural impasto marks, to simple geometric assemblage. Born just before World War Two, George was strongly affected by war-time events, particularly Hiroshima, which led to the production of many anti-war works throughout his career. A student at Leeds College of Art 1955-60, and the Slade School of Art 1960-62, he went on to work in Higher Education for many years, alongside his own practice, which also drew from his experiences in teaching.
