This work of Patrick’s is not only built in the technique he invented some fifty years ago; the innovative and much-imitated reverspective, but it is also made in perspective, as if it was already hanging on a wall and being seen by a viewer. A Newer Perspective contains many of Patrick’s favourite paintings: M.C. Escher’s puddle reflecting the sky, René Magritte The Human Condition, a Feininger of broken coloured glass, Paul Klee’s Highways and Byways, Dali’s great soft watches, Wayne Thiebaud’s agriculture seen by an expert in perspective, Lichtenstein’s ironical brush strokes, the Man Ray lips floating in the sky, and a great drawing by Saul Steinberg. A New Perspective is Patrick’s tribute to the imaginative artists who have inspired him.
