Albert Louden (British b. 1943)
Albert Louden was discovered in 1979 by Victor Musgrave, the visionary art dealer and curator, who also introduced the British public to the work of Yves Klein, Bridget Riley and a host of Fluxus and Art Brut artists.
Musgrave included Louden in the landmark 'Outsiders' show at the Hayward gallery and in 1985 Louden had a sell out show at the Serpentine Gallery. Over the years Louden has exhibited internationally and his works are now held in many private and public collections in Britain and abroad.
Louden's work is praised for its unique characters, vibrant palette and original wit.
