专家说明

'Harold Cohen's pictures show very clearly how the impact of New York painting affected his generation. Secret of 1964 with its map-like forms and linear rhythms is a picture about communication, the varieties of visual images providing the subject matter' (Introduction to Exhibition Catalogue, Recent British Painting: A Peter Stuyvesant Foundation Collection, City Art Gallery, Auckland, 1971).
Cohen was selected in 1964 as one of sixty contemporary artists to be included in the European Community Contemporary Painting Exhibition - The Marzotto Prize. He chose to submit Secret which was exhibited the following year in his one-man show at the Whitechapel Gallery and subsequently purchased by the Peter Stuyvesant Foundation.
