or 45 years we have actively searched for paintings worldwide for trade and private clients alike. Our vast knowledge of British and European Art has amounted from our experience within our specialist fields.

Tony Haynes is the eldest son of the late renowned international dealer, Tony Haynes Senior. Tony specialises in 19th to 21st Century British and European art. He opened the family’s first gallery back in 1988 and the rest, as they say, is history. This successful string to the Haynes family bow has now gained international recognition for the gallery and has trade and private clients calling upon Tony’s 35 plus years’ experience in retail, trade and auction acquisitions. Mark Shaw joined the team in 1993; a perfect compliment to the Haynes Fine Art sales team and considered a member of the Haynes Family. His valuable contributions and vast network of contacts, both in the UK and overseas, has helped to shape one of the world’s most respected fine art gallery brands. Mark Shaw has been a Senior Director of Haynes Fine Art for many years.

Mark Lambert became a Director of Haynes Fine Art in April 2008. With his depth of art history knowledge and a rare and valuable good eye for fine art, he now has an enviable client base that turn to him year after year for advice on both purchases and restoration/framing requirements. Douglas Chomè Wilson carries the title of Fine Art Valuer and is at the forefront of the Haynes Fine Art valuation and research team. Douglas followed his passion for paintings into the field of fine art in 1978. Douglas started his career in the West End of London where for over ten years he worked for, amongst others, the Richard Green Gallery.

Following that, he was Head of Victorian Paintings at Phillips Auctioneers and Bonhams Auctioneers. With his wealth of knowledge he is a valued member of the Haynes Fine Art brand. Harry Warner began working with Tony Haynes Senior in 2000. Harry has been responsible for acquisitions at Haynes Fine Art for a number of years. He worked closely with Tony Haynes Senior and now with Tony Haynes Junior in Broadway, scouring the globe to locate stock for both the Haynes family trade and retail operations. Harry is very much an integral member of the Haynes Team and can be seen at the gallery exhibitions and events. Wanda Ottlinghaüs-Marsters joined the team back in 1999 and got the Haynes engine room truly organised and running smoothly. Wanda works closely with Mark Shaw and Tony Haynes Junior on the day to day running of the gallery, overseeing client requests and updating new stock acquisitions along with her colleague Vicky. Vicky Rimell began at Haynes Fine Art in 2005 and is a valued member of the team, working with Tony Haynes Junior, Mark Shaw and the rest of the team on gallery operations, exhibitions and overall administration to keep things on track. All seven of the Haynes Fine Art team have, between them, over 140 years’ experience behind them and with that have gained acclaim from the two leading British Trade Associations - BADA and LAPADA.

Synopsis

POP ART

P

op art is now most associated with the work of New York artists of the early 1960s such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg and James Rosenquist, but artists who drew on popular imagery were part of an international phenomenon in various cities from the mid1950s onwards. Following the popularity of the Abstract Expressionists, Pop’s reintroduction of identifiable imagery (drawn from mass media and popular culture) was a major shift for the direction of modernism. The subject matter became far from traditional ‘high art’ themes of morality, mythology, and classic history; rather, Pop artists celebrated commonplace objects and people of everyday life, in this way seeking to elevate popular culture to the level of fine art. Perhaps owing to the incorporation of commercial images, Pop art has become one of the most recognizable styles of modern art. ANDY WARHOL ORIGINAL DRAWINGS

H

aynes Fine Art are proud to present this extremely rare collection of original one-off drawings by the celebrated Pop artist Andy Warhol.

Although best known for his silkscreen paintings, Andy Warhol was also an excellent draughtsman. Drawing was a constant part of his artistic practice. As a child he took classes at the Carnegie Museum of Art, and he won several awards for drawings he produced in high school. At Carnegie Institute for Technology (now Carnegie Mellon University), where Warhol earned a degree in pictorial design, his offbeat, nontraditional and sometimes irreverent drawing style did not always meet his professors’ academic standards. At one point they forced him to do extra work over the summer to remain in good standing at school. Upon graduation, Warhol moved to New York to begin his commercial design career. In the 1950s Warhol used a “blotted line” technique to develop a signature style for his illustrations. Blotted line combines drawing with very basic printmaking, and it enabled Warhol to create a variety of illustrations along a similar theme.

The process had many complex components. First, Warhol copied a line drawing onto a piece of non-absorbent paper, such as tracing paper. Next he hinged this piece of paper to a second sheet of more absorbent paper by taping their edges together on one side. With a nib pen, he inked over a small section of the drawn lines. He then transferred the ink onto the second sheet by folding along the hinge and lightly pressing or “blotting” the two papers together. Larger drawings were made in sections, and completing a large blotted line drawing took time and multiple pressings. The process resulted in the dotted, broken and delicate lines that are characteristic of Warhol’s illustrations. Warhol often coloured his blotted line drawings with watercolour dyes or applied gold leaf. He also used handcarved rubber stamps to create patterns. He employed all of these techniques in his burgeoning success as a commercial illustrator such as his award-winning and whimsical designs for I. Miller shoes or the high end leather company Fleming Joffe. During the decade he also filled many sketchbooks with freehand drawings—mostly done in ballpoint pen—of friends and still-life objects. While making a name for himself in New York, Warhol participated in the exciting metropolitan cultural life of the city. Despite his success as a commercial artist, Warhol longed to be known as a fine artist. He went to dance and opera performances, galleries, museums, and the New York Public Library, where he researched images that he later transformed in his work. In 1956, he left the United States for the first time and traveled around the world—visiting Japan, Cambodia, India, Egypt and Italy. After this enlightening experience, Warhol decided that his ambitions exceeded the bounds of the commercial art world. For the first time since his student years, he returned to painting on canvas. He began to make friends in the contemporary art world of downtown Manhattan—this scene embraced new forms of all arts, including dance, performance and film.

A

rguably what we have here are some of the original ideas that lay the very foundations to the Pop art movement.

An opportunity to see Warhol’s developing ideas at their conception. At every point they reveal his very own hand shaping the forms before the ideas were made into screenprints or, as the case with some of these, remain hidden away in his studio. Original Warhol limited edition prints can be found of these originals making these priceless additions for any serious discerning collector.

T

he portraits, celebrity snapshots, couples, nudes, painting ideas, party photos, still lifes and outdoor scenes that make

up each selection demonstrate the range of Warhol’s aesthetic

interests and the reach of his curious and far-roaming eye. The Polaroid portraits reveal the artist’s profound and frank engagement with the personality in front of his camera – be it a celebrity, a beauty, a tycoon or a socialite – while the gelatin silver photographs reveal his extraordinary compositional skill, his eye for detail and his compulsive desire to document the time in which he lived. Warhol often used these photographs as the basis for commissioned portraits, silkscreen paintings, drawings, and prints. He published three books, one posthumously, featuring his black and white photographic work: Andy Warhol’s Exposures (1979), America (1985) and Andy Warhol’s Party Book (1988). Together with the photographic exhibitions that began in the early 1990s, they offer the public a glimpse into Warhol’s photographic practice.
