WALTER PRICE’S first major institutional exhibition in Britain includes an intriguing group of new paintings and drawings made during lockdown in New York, where he is based.
During that period Price, who is in his thirties and has been exhibiting since 2013, used up whatever materials were on hand in the studio, without ordering in anything new.
That meant he sometimes had to work with the last knockings of his acrylic paints, mixing them with white and producing works dominated by pastel colours.
