 | | John Hoyland, the English painter and printmaker, was born in Sheffield in 1934 and studied at Sheffield School of Art from 1951 to 1956 and the Royal Academy Schools from 1956 to 1960. |
 | | Hoyland soon came to reject the American tendency to reductivism, however, and later paintings such as 22.5.75 (1975) and North Sound (1979) feature varied and tactile surfaces where the paint has been poured, splattered, brushed and applied with a palette- knife. |
 | | Hoyland’s first one man show was held at the Marlborough New London Gallery in 1964 and was followed by exhibitions at the Whitechapel and Waddington Galleries and throughout the United States, Europe, Australia and Canada during the 1970s and 80s. |
