Patrick Caulfield Wall Art

Patrick Caulfield ranked among Pop Art movement in the post-war world, notwithstanding the Artist’s mild objection. The Chelsea Art School graduate first displayed his works in 60’s of the previous century, thus allowing critics to evaluate his tendencies as part of the British Pop art current. Having taken quite a few inspirations from Dadaism, Caulfield’s activity is apparently linked with the surrealistic world, aiming at “fabricating” an artist’s new reality. However, the English painter was still capable of depicting and disclosing his individual views and approach towards the art first and afterwards, in terms of the surrounding world. This said, no wonder, that many of his works have got tight bonds with so called photorealism.

Caulfield was pretty devoted to his techniques throughout his career. He never quit to surprise his audience with mostly cartoon-like images as if requiring additional colouristic embellishment (After Lunch) or the ones reproducing simple objects precisely covered with various colours capturing the viewer’s imagination. As it is known, the Artist made use of household paints that explains less-artistic value of his colour-oriented resolutions. Nevertheless, his paintings pretty always carry a supplementary, sort of symbolic meaning (Lampshade), perhaps, introducing an individual sub-division within the Pop Art movement. Furthermore, a number of his works may well serve as an example of simultaneously portrayed two “realities” (After Lunch, Paradise Bar, Tandoori Restaurant, Entrance, etc.), thus, probably, juxtaposing inner and outer worlds, present and past, real and illusory elements by discharging vast segments of the works from multi-coloured mixtures. The similar technique, based on showing the utmost simplicity in line with intensely saturated surfaces, are showcased by his numerous screen prints as well, making inseparable part of his collections.

Being avowed for his, already frequently mentioned, simplicity and homogeneity, Patrick Caulfield’s art still conserves multiple puzzles granting its viewers the possibility to never back out of identifying many different interpretations.
