About
Kate MacGarry is pleased to announce an exhibition by Jeff Keen, one of the most significant British artist-filmmakers of the postwar period. His films were recently shown in the Tanks at Tate Modern in September 2012 and in a retrospective at the BFI Southbank, London in 2009. Jeff Keen began producing drawings, collages, paintings and assemblages after serving in World War II, an experience that had a profound influence on his life and artistic practice. He worked in the Intelligence Corps on top secret experiments in weaponry. His early work shows the influence of the dominant avant-garde trends of the Forties and early Fifties such as Art Brut, Dadaism, Abstract Expressionism and the CoBrA Group.
