An introduction to Richard Diebenkorn

Richard Diebenkorn is regarded as one of the most significant artists in post-war America. His work captures a sense of the light and place in which he worked, of New Mexico and California, and reveals his mastery as a consummate colourist. In this lecture, curator Edith Devaney explores the life and work of Richard Diebenkorn and considers why this is the first UK exhibition of such a major artist in over 20 years.
