For over six-decades, British artist David Hepher has explored the ubiquitous tower-blocks, high-rises, and public housing complexes of South London in layered paintings. Born in Surrey in 1935, Hepher’s interest in the urban landscape dates to his undergraduate studies at Camberwell School and later, the Slade School of Art, from which he emerged a realist painter. His fidelity to the landscape - in this case the industrialized housing estates that came to dominate post-war Britain - has been a lifelong pursuit.
Available to watch now is our newest documentary on this fascinating British painter! The profile invites you into Hepher’s studio, follows his exhibition at Flowers Gallery, and traces the artist’s avid eye for industrial architecture, while exploring how Hepher’s upbringing and artistic growth in England has shaped his philosophy on art.
