Joe Tilson Biography

(b London, 24 Aug 1928). English painter, sculptor and printmaker. After working as a carpenter and joiner (1944–6) and serving in the Royal Air Force (1946–9), he studied in London at St Martin’s School of Art (1949–52) and the Royal College of Art (1952–5), where his fellow students included Peter Blake and Richard Smith. He worked at first in a fairly conventional realist style, concentrating on contemporary subject-matter taken from his immediate surroundings and from travels to Italy and Spain (e.g. Matador , 1954; priv. col., see P. Huxley, ed., Exhibition Road: Painters at the Royal College of Art , Oxford, 1988, p. 48).
