Velvet-Club Connecting Lesbians & Bi-women around the World
Lucian Freud (19222011) was a British painter who is widely celebrated for his portraits. A deeply private man, the people in Freuds paintings were often those closest to him his friends, family, fellow artists and lovers. Freuds portraits are an intensely personal record of the time spent with those who he knew best. The artist had the masterful ability to capture the mood and inner essence of his sitters. Visitors to this exhibition will see paintings, etchings and photographs featuring the artists most recognised sitters including his first wife Kitty Garman, his friend and studio assistant David Dawson and performance artist Leigh Bowery. "... My work is purely autobiographical. It is about myself and my surroundings... I work from the people that interest me... I use the people to invent my pictures with, and I can work more freely when they are there..." Lucian Freud
