Happy 85th Birthday Colin Self : ‘Say it with Flowers, from The Odyssey/Iliad Suite’
20 – 31 July, on view by request

To celebrate the artist’s 85th birthday we are presenting four flower etchings from The Odyssey/Iliad Suite, alongside a dozen of Colin’s favourite collages and assemblages from his private collection.

Made with printer Linda Richardson from materials gathered at dumps, jumble and car boot sales, “printed from the sea of detritus found by me on a different odyssey”, each part is individually inked and arranged by Colin on the press for every separate pull, making each print in the edition unique.

A key figure of British Pop art, Self studied at the Slade alongside Hockney and Blake before returning to Norfolk in 1965. His work is held in collections including Tate, the British Council and Pallant House Gallery, and in 2025 Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery staged One Self, his largest retrospective to date.

Works illustrated:
Chrysanthemums, 2009
Flowers in a Planished Vase, Blue Sky and Butterflies, 2009
Hands, 2009
Chinese Lanterns in a Two Tone Vase, 2009
All etchings, 100 × 70 cm, editions of 30 unique variants

Ed Paschke, Tragique, 1980. A leading figure of the Chicago Imagists, Paschke (1939–2004) built a singular visual language from the fringes of American culture, tattoo parlours, wrestler masks, and the electric glow of television and neon. In Tragique, painted in 1980, a masklike face is rendered in acidic, luminous colour.

Jeff Koons, who worked as Paschke’s studio assistant in Chicago in the 1970s, called him “an incredible mentor and friend”, “like a big brother. All of the desire of looking for art to bring transcendence into my life, Ed represented that.” In 2010, Koons curated a major exhibition of Paschke’s work, cementing his teacher’s place in the story of contemporary art.

This work is on view in our current show ‘Happy Birthday America!’ Which runs until 31 July.

Pauline Boty (1938–1966), sixty years ago today.

Painter, collagist, and the only woman among the founding figures of British Pop Art. Trained at Wimbledon and the Royal College of Art, she ran with David Hockney, Peter Blake, Peter Phillips and Derek Boshier, and appeared in Ken Russell’s Pop Goes the Easel (1962). Her vivid, collaged, unapologetically sensual paintings reclaimed female desire and celebrity image-making from a woman’s point of view, at a moment when Pop was almost entirely a male domain. She died of leukaemia on 1 July 1966, aged twenty-eight, having refused treatment to protect her unborn child.

The Mayor Gallery has played a defining role in her rediscovery, from one of the first dedicated exhibitions of her work on paper in 1993 to The Only Blonde in the World in 1998, the largest retrospective to date, made with Whitford Fine Art.

In memoriam, 1 July 2026.

Feliza Bursztyn (1933–1982), pioneer of post-war Latin American art.

The first woman in Colombia to sculpt with industrial and discarded materials, Bursztyn turned scrap metal into restless, living form. From the controversial Chatarras to the motorised Histéricas, fusing movement, sound and performance, she remains one of the most experimental artists of her generation. Her life was marked by political persecution and exile, and her work today sits in collections from Tate Modern to LACMA.

We are honoured to present her work at Feature, Stand D4. Five of the sculptures shown here travel to Kunsthalle Mannheim for Radical Realities (3 Jul – 11 Oct 2026), while Museum Tinguely Basel presents her in Labouring Bodies (10 Jun – 8 Nov 2026).

Find us in the Feature sector at Art Basel 2026 with a solo presentation dedicated to Feliza Bursztyn, a pioneering figure in post-war Latin American art and the first woman in Colombia to work extensively with sculpture using industrial and discarded materials.

Transforming scrap metal into dynamic, often kinetic forms, Bursztyn challenged conventions of material, movement, and power while forging a singular artistic language.
