[News] RIP John Kirby

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Rather a sad Friday night dinner yesterday, with my old pal Bob just told of the passing of his brother, the extraordinary British artist, John.
Not a surprise, as he'd been on end of life care for the last few weeks.
And ready to pass through the door. RIP.

An artist I’ve admired for a long time. I have a mid 80s piece by him and a couple of later LE prints.

I had no idea he was that ill. RIP John.

He was a very private bloke. There had been nothing in the media. His agent will probably do a presser in a few days.
