Mientras tanto, en la vida de Bridget Riley
La vida entera1980–1981
A trip to Egypt and the “Egyptian palette”
After a visit to Egypt, where she is inspired by colourful hieroglyphic decoration, she creates colours in what she calls her “Egyptian palette”; it marks the start of a new exploration of colour and contrast.
1980s
Blocking Thatcher’s plan at the National Gallery
As a board member of the National Gallery in the 1980s she blocks Margaret Thatcher’s plan to give an adjoining piece of property to developers, thus helping ensure the eventual construction of the museum’s Sainsbury Wing.
1983
Return to Venice
For the first time in fifteen years she returns to Venice to study again the paintings that form the basis of European colourism.
1998
Order of the Companions of Honour
She becomes one of only 65 Members of the Order of the Companions of Honour in the Commonwealth.
1999
A show of early paintings at the Serpentine Gallery
Her disciplined work lost ground in the 1980s to the assertive gestures of the Neo-Expressionists, although Ross Bleckner and Philip Taaffe painted homages to her; a 1999 show of her early paintings at the Serpentine Gallery triggers a resurgence of interest in her optical experiments.
2003
Retrospective at Tate Britain
Tate Britain organises a major Riley retrospective.
