Regarded as one of Britain’s most famous living artists, Peter Blake (b. 1932) is also a pioneer of British pop art and a master draughtsman who works across the mediums of paint, collage and print. In Study for 'Party' 4 (2018) we see his attention to life drawing and in what has been likened to an ‘astonishing economy of line’, through which he blends a sense of modernity and familiarity alongside the passage of time.

Examples of Blake’s work are featured in public collections such as the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; Arts Council Collection, London; Museum Moderner Kunst, Vienna; MoMA, New York; Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore; Tate, London; The Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester; Leeds City Art Gallery, Leeds; Museum Ludwig, Cologne; Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, Lisbon.
