Stay up to date with this artist
Robyn Denny, who graduated in 1957 from the Royal College of Art, was one of a powerful generation of innovatory artists. He was to become one of the most original abstract painters of the later 20th century, evolving an intellectually demanding approach to painting that – perhaps paradoxically – resulted in pure visual delight bordering on the voluptuous.

Independent, constantly questioning and intensely urban, Denny immersed himself in contemporary city culture, making it the foundation of his work. His titles, though apparently plucked from the air, were culled from news reports, TV shows and esoteric reading. Later, they sometimes suggested the process of making paintings, implying a reflective dialogue between artist and canvas. He also made numerous prints and, with the Colour Box series, experimented with translucent acrylic sheets as a medium for multiples.

About the work
About the Work
Scarce signed original etching and aquatint with hand colouring, on watercolour wash.
Bon-a-Tirer before the edition of 35.

Printed at JC Editions.
Published by Bernard Jabobson.

The Generations Suite is a set of 24 etchings, all with asymmetrical linear configurations which relate by mirroring one another through the set.
The etching plates were printed over watercolour wash and, on some, a further wash was then added.
The plate alters the ground colours and adds black or white soft-ground etched lines.

The conventions for numbering prints are well-established, such as editions, artist’s proofs and printer’s proofs.
These prints are from a B.A.T or Bon-A-Tirer edition, meaning ‘Good to Print’ in French. This is the master image that the artist signs off for the printer as the standard that the editions must match. It is very rare to find B.A.T editions.

The picture I had arranged to see was ready for me and staff gave me lots of time to look at it and decide, but I loved it as soon as I saw it. No pressure. Very knowledgeable, friendly staff. I had great advice on framing and protective glass.

Astonishing place. Driving home I realised it was probably the best experience I've ever had in a shop/gallery. I'll be filling my house with their artworks for years to come. A unique place.

Goldmark have the most astonishing range, from the very affordable to the upper echelons of the market. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and really helpful. For anyone wanting to start a serious art collection within whatever budget this could be the best place to start.

There is no other gallery like Goldmark. I'm always amazed at both the stock they hold and their ability to regularly source really quite special pieces of art. That, with their friendly, knowledgeable & utterly unpretentious style makes them a delight to visit & to buy from.

Their delivery service is 100% reliable and the breadth of work displayed on their website pretty amazing. Above all, unlike other such dealers, I have never been under any pressure to buy. I recommend you give them a try.

We first visited Goldmark approximately 6 years ago and immediately liked the informality compared to previous gallery experiences. It’s a great place to start or build on your collection. Everyone at Goldmark is very friendly, knowledgeable and will give you as much or as little time as you wish.

We have bought prints and pots from Goldmark over many years and our house is the richer for the collections we have built up. The framing and delivery service are faultless.
