I first heard about the Warwick exhibition when the organizers got in touch to ask for permission to include my painting 'Flobe'. Unfortunately it's not one of mine, and was painted by Eric Gadsby, who was also in the 1966 New Generation show at the Whitechapel.
Apparently EG has had a limited presence on the art scene, but it seems he has been rediscovered, and a show of his paintings from 1966 to 1976 at Austin/Desmond Fine Art is opening later this month. A post on the Illuminations website blog put together an interesting round up of how the New Generation artists have fared.
