拍品專文

'In 1972, along with other artists, I was invited to donate a work to raise funds for AFASIC [a UK charity assisting children and young adults with communication impairments] which I was pleased to support. Linear Space Construction No. 1 was subsequently purchased for the Leverhulme Foundation - I understand on the recommendation of Sir Alan Bowness - who had in 1964 together with Adrian Stokes bought Space Construction 13 for the Arts Council from the Penwith Gallery in St Ives, and Space Ring 1966, also for the Arts Council, from The Axiom Gallery in Duke Street.

Linear Space Construction No.1 is one of a pair of works. Although not an explanation of the configuration of the work, and unlike other British constructionist work which is concerned with mathematical and systemic content, these works attempt to direct attention at the complex visual mechanisms of the eye-brain processes which we deploy to 'read' the visual world - and to offer opportunities to the spectator to create new experience'.
- Terry Pope, February 2017.
