Who is Francis Davison

Francis Davison (1919–1984) was a British visual artist and painter. His later work, starting shortly after his marriage to Margaret Mellis in 1948, is characterised by the use of collage: coloured printed paper layered and mounted on board. Davison remained in relative obscurity until finding recognition in the late 1970s and early 80s. He died in 1984.ReferencesFurther readingDavison, Francis, Hayward Gallery, and Arts Council of Great Britain. Francis Davison: Paper Collages: 10 February to 17 April 1983, Hayward Gallery, London.
