        ⊕ JUSTIN KNOWLES (BRITISH 1935-2004) UNTITLED 1965 : 27 signed and dated JUSTIN KNOWLES / 1965 : 27 on the reverse acrylic on canvas 185 x 214cm; 72 3/4 x 84 1/4in 210 x 242cm; 82 1/2 x 95 1/4in (framed) Property from a London Collection Provenance Acquired from the artist by the present owner in 1966 Exhibited Edinburgh, The Richard Demarco Gallery 8, Justin Knowles, 1967 Born in Exeter, and with little formal training behind him, Knowles met with immediate success as both sculptor and painter when he first exhibited in New York in the English Eye exhibition at Marlborough-Gerson Gallery in 1965, and was awarded second prize at the exhibtion Open Painting at the Ulster Museum, Belfast organised by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland in 1966. Writing in Studio International in 1972, Patrick Heron contended that Knowles' work was ‘eloquent and fertile’, and commanded ‘a sheerness of image that is absolutely masterly’. A devastating fire in 1973, however, destroyed a large proportion of his output, and he did not exhibit again until the 1990s - a period he termed the 'silent time'. Despite the huge loss of Knowles' corpus of work, his final years were largely successful. He began producing sculpture again, spare and beautiful works superbly finished in a range of materials. Thus followed a string of high-profile shows, including at the National Technical Museum, Prague; at Austin / Desmond Fine Art, London and at Lemon Street Gallery, Truro in the early 2000s. His aquamarine, iridescent cross commissioned by Exeter Cathedral in 2002 remains there to this day—a lasting memory of the artist's life-long achievements in his city of birth.
