This is a project close to my heart because I've been involved right from the start, when Mark Daniels unearthed a treasure trove of art that had been lost for decades – work by his father Barry Daniels and his colleagues Peter Blake, Bernard Cohen, Robyn Denny, Tom Adams and Edward Wright. Click the picture to see the site.
DANAD Design came together in 1958, the brainchild of a collective of artists who lived, hung out and worked in the dilapidated splendour of Marden Hill – a Georgian country house in Hertfordshire where they
made a communal home and creative hothouse.
Widely acknowledged as some of the originators of the Pop Art movement, these four painters and sculptors fused their talents with those of architects Peter Adams and Colin Huntley to encapsulate the essence of their art in their own hand-made, inspirational furniture. I'm honoured to write about this amazing heritage and help share it by writing stuff for the various associated websites and for exhibition catalogues. Actually I started doing that about 30 years ago when I wrote some stuff for a Barry Daniels solo exhibition in Cork Street.
