Frank Auerbach, a titan of postwar British painting, dedicated his life to a small circle of intimates and his North London surroundings, painting relentlessly for over six decades.
Known for his relentless work ethic, Auerbach painted nearly every day except for one annual trip to Brighton, showcasing a dedication to his craft that few could match.
His artistic legacy is characterized by thickly painted portraits and feverish streetscapes from his local neighborhood, evolving in palette and intensity over the decades.
Auerbach drew inspiration from his neighborhood in Camden Town, often depicting familiar subjects and transforming them into vibrant, textured works that straddle abstraction and figuration.
