Dangerous Liaison captures the uniquely individual and highly enigmatic character of Jackson’s work. Shrouded in theatrical robes and adorned with gold masks his two figures are reminiscent of the 18th Century Venetian procurator; one of his most celebrated themes. Although theatrical and often operatic, Jackson’s sculptures never fail to convey the human condition, as seen in the present work, where the two figures intimately converse with one another.

Jackson is not only renowned for his smaller scale work but also his larger commissions, such as The Bomber Command Memorial in Green Park, opened by Her Majesty the Queen in 2012, and The Gurkha Monument in Horse Guard’s Avenue.
