Derek Boshier was one of the 1962 graduates of the College of Art, who established Pop Art as a movement. Derek Boshier brought to British Pop Art a strong satirical edge, which distinguished his work from that of his fellow students at the Royal College of Art, the birth-place of British Pop Art movement. Boshier's art has gone through various phases, touching on Pop Art, hard-edge Op Abstraction and politically radical conceptual art. Boshier currently works and lives in Los Angeles, California.Public collections include: British Council, London
