拍品专文

'In 1982 I noticed how two contrasting colours, painted on the surface of a form, could visually take precedence over the actual edge of the sculpture itself.

The Entertainers, 1985, is a visual discourse between the inherent simplicity of my cut out steel sculptures and the complexity possible when painting the figures on canvas.

They are different visual languages interacting with each other - that's what I call entertainment' (Allen Jones, May 2016).
