Tachisme.- Middleton (Derek Osborne, English 'Tachiste' Abstract Impressionist painter, 1917-83) Collection of material, including: his unpublished autobiography "How To Be An Artist", family photographs, autograph inventory of paintings and "Weekly Accounts"; original family photographs; a detailed inventory by him of his paintings between 1956 and 1982; his autograph 'Weekly Accounts', 1945 to 1951; original silkscreen prints (one signed) and reproductions of his work; over a hundred photographs of his work, in two folders, with detailed annotation for a sale following his death; a collection of his unpublished poetry; various CVs, produced both during his lifetime and after his death, with a detailed 'List of Buyers'; publications including gallery programmes and invitations; and a miscellaneous collection of related correspondence and other material, manuscripts etc., some browning, folds, some wear, v.s., v.d., 1940s - 80s (lge qty). ⁂ Derek Middleton was an important figure in the abstract impressionist movement of the 1960s. Born in Shanghai in 1917, Middleton studied art in Munich, Florence and Dusseldorf, his work being hung at the Royal Academy in 1953 and 1954. In 1957, he had his first one-man show, at the New Vision; in each of the following three years, he was given one-man shows at the Redfern. Middleton went to live in Paris in 1958, and with the change of country he changed his vision and expanded his artistic range. Whereas his earlier works had retained some elements of representation, his later ones were almost purely abstract. And, increasingly, he became fascinated by the texture of wood, producing sculptures and reliefs notable for their bold design and fine craftsmanship. Examples of Middleton's work are in the British Museum, the Liverpool and Manchester municipal art galleries, the Museum of Modern art Cleveland, Ohio; City Hall, Quebec; and in many private collections in Europe and the United States. Provenance: The present collection of material derives from the papers of Middleton's nephew Colin Burton Stewart.
