Catalogue Note

"Andy was a lovely guy, with a very kind heart. He came to all our family get-togethers and always brought presents for the children [...] Andy wanted people to get his art instantly. He resented the idea of people having to have an art degree and discuss art, he felt it should be for the masses and they should be able to look at your art and get it without being educated or knowing anything about art. I liked that; he was very democratic" (Jerry Hall, My Life in Pictures, London 2010, p. 149/ 162-6).
