About The Artwork
expand_more
Patrick Hughes’ Mondrainbow playfully unites two powerful visual languages: the ordered geometry of Mondrian and the fluid arc of a rainbow. The precision of the grid, rooted in abstraction and balance, is gently disrupted by the sweep of color that cascades across the canvas. The result is a striking dialogue between structure and spontaneity, logic and wonder.
By placing the rainbow within a minimal gallery setting, Hughes transforms a familiar natural phenomenon into a vibrant act of intervention. The work invites collectors to reflect on how imagination can bend the rigid frameworks of perception, while the archival pigment print on Somerset Satin paper preserves its vivid tones and crisp detail for generations to come.

About the artist

Patrick held his first solo show in 1961 at the Portal Gallery, London. It was the first one-man show by a Pop Artist, though they were not even called that then. Three and four years later, Hughes made two seminal reverse perspective works, Infinity and Sticking-out Room. But in the 1970s Hughes’ name became synonymous with rainbow paintings, which also became very popular as prints and as postcards; people enjoyed them as decoration, but for Hughes the rainbow represented a solidified experience.
In the late 1980s Hughes revisited exploiting the difference between perspective and reverspective and making space, frozen but mobile. For the last 25 years his 3-D reverspective paintings have been hughesually in demand, exhibited around the world and featured in many public collections. The experience of seeing a Patrick Hughes sculptured painting in reality is really to experience unreality and the paradox of illusory space and movement.
