Tony Bevan (born 1951) is a British painter. ==Biography== Bevan was born in Bradford, Yorkshire. He studied at Bradford School of Art from 1968 to 1971, followed by Goldsmiths' College, London from 1971 to 1974, and the Slade School of Fine Art from 1974 to 1976. He was elected to the Royal Academy of Arts in London as an Academician in 2007. Bevan came to prominence as an artist in the 1980s, taking part in the ICA show ''Before it hits the floor'' in 1982,〔Sandy Nairne, ''Before it hits the floor'' (London: Institute of Contemporary Arts, 1982)〕 ''Problems of Picturing'', curated by Sarah Kent and held at the Serpentine Gallery in London in 1982-83,〔Sarah Kent, ''Problems of Picturing'' (London: Serpentine Gallery, 1982)〕 and ''The British Art Show,'' a touring exhibition of contemporary art, in 1984.〔Thomson et al, ''The British Art Show: Old Allegiances and New Directions, 1979-1984'' (London: Arts Council of Great Britain, 1984)〕 This was followed by exhibitions mainly in the USA and Germany, including the LA Louver Gallery, California, in 1989, 1992 and 1995, and Kunsthalle, Kiel, in 1988, Staatsgalerie Moderner Kunst Haus der Kunst, Munich, in 1989, and Galerie Wittenbrink, in Munich, during the 1990s.〔Marco Livingstone, ''Tony Bevan'' (Venice, CA: LA Louvre, 1998)〕 Bevan also exhibits in Australia, at Niagara Galleries, Melbourne and Liverpool Street Gallery, Sydney, with recent solo shows in 2013. In 2006 Bevan was invited to explore the printmaking technique of monoprints, a technique he had not previously tried, at the Scuola de Grafica in Venice. This resulted in over 80 images which were subsequently shown at Marlborough Fine Art in London, and marked the beginning of an interest in printmaking Bevan retains to this day.〔Marco Livingstone, ''Tony Bevan: Monotypes'' (London: Marlborough Fine Art, 2007)〕 Bevan has work in many major art collections around the world, including Arts Council England, the Israel Museum, Jerusalem, the British Museum, the Louisiana Museum in Denmark, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Tate. He is represented by Marlborough Fine Art, L.A. Louver and Ben Brown Fine Arts, London. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tony Bevan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
