專家說明

'Terry Frost's Red and Black is a seminal work. The red and black shapes ultimately derive from Frost's drawings of boats at St Ives in 1950-1, but as the artist writes, "I had no association in mind when I was painting and was only interested in getting the colour and form as complete as I could"' (A. Bowness, exhibition catalogue, Recent British Painting: Peter Stuyvesant Foundation Collection, London, Tate Gallery, 1967, p. 18).
