   Presentation

It was during his studies that Alan Charlton affirmed his minimalist artistic practice and decided to devote himself exclusively to grey paint. He exhibited his gray monochromes for the first time in 1972 at the Konrad Fischer Gallery in Düsseldorf. 
Since the 1970s, Alan Charlton's work has been recognized and exhibited at the Centre Pompidou (Paris, FR), the Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam, NL), the Castello di Rivoli (Turin, ITA), the Tate (London, GBR), and the MuHKA Museum voor Hedendaagse Kunst (Antwerp, BEL). His work is present in numerous public and private collections such as the Arts Council Collection (London, UK), and the Coleccion de Arte Contemporaneo "Caixa" (Barcelona, ESP).
