Blake, Quentin2018
Books
Quentin Blake's illustrations are instantly recognisable to millions of people around the world. A new exhibition to be held at London's House of Illustration will explore an unusual aspect of Blake s work, however, exhibiting for the first time 100 examples of his works of art. '100 Figures' will feature all of the 100 exhibited works ranging from large-scale oil paintings to drawings and prints, created between the 1950s and today. Works included date back to his post-grad years in the 1950s when he struggled to make a living as an illustrator and took life-drawing classes at Chelsea School of Art.
