Patrick Hughes. Leaning on a Landscape, 1979, print.
Patrick Hughes (born 20 Oct 1939)[1] is
a British artist working in London. He is the creator of "reverspective",
an optical illusion on a 3-dimensional surface where the parts of the picture which seem farthest away are actually physically the nearest.
Life[edit]
Patrick Hughes was born in Birmingham,
went to school in Hull and went on at the James Graham Day College in Leeds in
1959. Later he taught at the Leeds College of Artbefore becoming
an independent artist. He has three sons by his first wife, Rennie Paterson, and was later married to the author Molly
Parkin. Hughes lives above his studio near Old Street, London, with his third wife,
the historian and biographer Diane Atkinson.[2]
He has been represented by Angela Flowers for more than forty years.
Art[edit]
In July 2011, Hughes celebrated 'Fifty Years in Showbusiness' with two exhibitions, a retrospective at Flowers East, and current works in Flowers Cork Street.[3]
Hughes' early works were often playful, putting things back to front or squashing them flat, like Clown (1963) and Liquorice Allsorts (1960), setting words against images,
like One Two (1962), or against themselves, like Tick Cross (1962). He explored visual oxymorons and paradoxes.[2] His
fascination with the illusion of perspective began with works like Infinity (1963), Three Doors (1964) and The Space Ruler (1965).
In the 1970s Hughes hung his investigations of perception and illusion on the motif of the rainbow in a series of prints and paintings, such as Pile of Rainbows (1973),Prison
Rainbow (1973) and Leaning on a Landscape (1979). Later prints like Leaf Art (1975) and paintings like Realistic Paint (1977) expressed similar interests with colour.[4]
His first "reverse perspective" or "reverspective" was Sticking Out Room (1964), which was a life-size room for the Institute
of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in 1970. He returned to explore the possibilities of reverspective in 1990 with Up the Line and Down the Road (1991)[2] Since
then, his reverspectives have been shown in London, New York, Santa Monica, Seoul, Chicago, Munich and Toronto.
His work entitled Paradoxymoron is currently exhibited in the British Library, London. It shows a set of library book stacks, which appear to move in an extremely disconcerting way
as the viewer's eyes move.
He explains reverspective:
“ | Reverspectives are three-dimensional paintings that when viewed from the front initially give the impression of viewing a painted flat surface that shows a perspective view. However as soon as the viewer moves their head even slightly the three dimensional surface that supports the perspective view accentuates the depth of the image and accelerates the shifting perspective far more than the brain normally allows. This provides a powerful and often disorienting impression of depth and movement. The illusion is made possible by painting the view in reverse to the relief of the surface, that is, the bits that stick farthest out from the painting are painted with the most distant part of the scene.[5] |

Patrick Hughes. Vanishing Venice.

Physical structure of Vanishing Venice.
The picture surface of Vanishing Venice (above) is 3-dimensional, made of two pyramids protruding towards the viewer with the tops cut off: the bases of the pyramids are farthest
away (flat against the wall). The two lighter rectangles which appear to be in the distance at the end of the buildings are the flat tops and thus the part of the image physically nearest to the viewer (see diagram right).
Hughes' reverspective is the subject of scientific papers on the psychology of perception, by Nicholas Wade[6] and
Thomas Papathomas of Rutgers University's Laboratory of Vision Research.[7][8][9]
Writing[edit]
Hughes has written four books investigating themes that parallel his art. His latest is Paradoxymoron: Foolish Wisdom in Words and Pictures,[10] published
in 2011. His other books are Vicious Circles and Infinity: A Panoply of Paradoxes[11] (with
artist George Brecht); Upon the Pun: Dual Meaning in Words and Pictures, with
Paul Hammond (London, W.H. Allen, 1978); and More on Oxymoron (Jonathan Cape, Ltd. 1984) which investigates both verbal and visual oxymoron.
He has written for The Observer, The
Guardian, and ICA Magazine, among others, on art, artists and interesting lives. A collection of his writings, Left to Write, was published by Momentum in 2008. The third edition of John Slyce's Patrick Hughes: Perverspective was
published in 2011, with a new afterword by Murray McDonald.[12] Most
recently, A New Perspective, a 240 page monograph with essays by Professor Dawn Ades, Professor Martin Kemp, Murray McDonald and Dr Thomas Papathomas, was published by Flowers Gallery in November 2014.
Influences[edit]
Hughes was influenced by the surrealistic Lilliput,
comics and the absurdist theatre of Ionesco and N.
F. Simpson, as well as the work of Paul Klee and Surrealists, particularly René
Magritte, Giorgio de Chirico and Marcel
Marien. The Leeds-based surrealist Anthony Earnshaw was a friend and
inspiration.
