Sad Death Richard Hamilton & Fathers of Pop DVD
anne, Friday 23 September 2011
Richard Hamilton sadly died on 13th September 2011, a great loss to contemporary, critical fine art. Obituries published by the UK press were, not unexpectadly, fixated on his Father of Pop status. This inclues the Observer (reprint of an interview from 2010) and The Guardian (written by Norbert Lynton, who died 4 years ago).
Many visitors to the site, particuarly from the US, ask about acquiring the fantastic DVD, Fathers of Pop. Now the supplier has a 2-4-1 offer to mark Hamilton's death. See below:
