Abstract composition in blue and green

This painting was given to the Museum by Sir David Eccles who was Minister of Education 1954-62 and it hung in Government offices for many years. On the back of the canvas is written in black crayon 'Redfern 11'. It seems possible that this painting is the one entitled Score , which was exhibited as No.11 in the Redfern gallery's show of Avray Wilson's paintings held in the first quarter of 1960. However, this remains unconfirmed. Avray was inspired by the outdoors, minerals and crystals and these elements often form the basis for the forms and patterns in his paintings, which he has described as emerging "unpredictably, autonomously".
