Eduardo Paolozzi and Ray Watson: The Drive to Create

Ray Hardinge Campbell Watson was a long-time friend and collaborator of the artist Eduardo Paolozzi. We are delighted to be offering a collection of works from Ray’s collection in our January 2026 Contemporary Art auction.

The Stephen Jenn Collection: Select Works by John Kirby 

‘The Stephen Jenn Collection: Part I’, featuring in Contemporary Art on 13 August, is the first of a two-part selection of works by the intriguing and critically regarded artist John Kirby.

Our January 2026 Contemporary Art auction features several special collections including a fascinating group of works by <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.lyonandturnbull.com/artists/eduardo-paolozzi">Eduardo Paolozzi</a>, acquired directly from the artist by his close friend and collaborator, Ray Watson. &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;We are also delighted to be offering The Stephen Jenn Collection: Part II: Select Works by John Kirby, as well as a small group of personal portraits by Tai-Shan Schierenberg from the Estate of John Kirby. The artists developed a close friendship after meeting together during their art school studies in London in the 1980s.&nbsp;The importance of relationships between artists, collaborators and collectors is a common thread in this auction and is continued with our offering of a further grouping of works from the Collection of Gillian Raffles, including some early works by one of her longest-standing artists, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.lyonandturnbull.com/artists/elizabeth-blackadder">Dame Elizabeth Blackadder</a>. We are delighted to have strong representation from other ever-popular Scottish artists including Jack Vettriano, John Bellany, Robin Philipson and Peter Howson, a range of compelling sculpture including a striking bronze by <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.lyonandturnbull.com/artists/gerald-laing">Gerald Laing </a>and a playful painted piece by <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.lyonandturnbull.com/artists/nicolas-party">Nicholas Party.</a>
