Roderic Barrett

Roderic Barrett is one of the most powerful and distinctive British painters who worked in the last century, whose paintings and engravings are only now gaining a more just appreciation. His output was not great, sometimes only a few pictures in a year, but his images are distinctive and often unforgettable.

Born in 1920, this artistic nonconformist came from a background steeped in nonconformity. A lifelong Socialist and pacifist, he also objected to military service during the Second World War. His enduring legacy is a set of wonderful images, often with built-in enigmas. Candles symbolise life, and a half-candle a life cut short. Chairs represent people, and upturned chairs an argument. These are just two suggestions that have been made to interpret some of Barrett’s images with an obvious emotional charge. Any interpretation is probably speculative, and as the viewer stands puzzling, he or she should not neglect to enjoy the image for its own sake.

Because he painted what he loved he was able to communicate that love to others. For this reason, I believe, his work will always be appreciated long after so much of the facile creations produced today have been forgotten.
