Tate Britain presents a survey exhibition of the celebrated British painter, Patrick Caulfield, who came to prominence in the 1960s. Caulfield trained at the Royal College of Art, where he was a year behind Hockney, and despite appearing in the defining 'New Generation' exhibition at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1964, he preferred not to be labelled a pop artist, instead he saw himself as "a 'formal' artist". Known for his vibrant paintings of modern life, around 30 of which are shown in this exhibition, Caulfield was a master of colour and graphic elegance. Highlights of the exhibition include well-known paintings such as Interior with a Picture 1985-6, and Hemingway Never Are Here 1999. The Caulfield exhibition runs in parallel with an exhibition on Gary Hume, offering visitors the chance to see two complementary British painters from different generations.
