Notes
Patrick Hughes lives and works in London. He is widely recognised as one of the major painters of contemporary British art. His solo show in 1961 was the first by a British Pop Artist. His work is in thousands of private and public collections including the British Council, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Tate Gallery, the British Academy and the British Library.
Of Aroundbow, Hughes says: “We usually see rainbows as part of an arc, part of a circle. If you see one from an aeroplane or at Victoria Falls you discover they are actually giant rings until the Earth gets in the way. I have imagined a reflected rainbow making a perfect hoop with an imperfect lifebelt to save you.”
