Gordon House

Born: 1932
Died: 2004

Gordon House studied at Luton School of Art in Bedfordshire and St. Albans School of Art in Hertfordshire before moving into a career in graphic design. From the late 1950s onward, House began producing large-scale abstract works. However, it was in the 1960s that his reputation began to grow: he had become established among a new generation of artists as an independently minded and adventurous painter and designer. He worked for The Beatles, designing their White album and the back of the Sergeant Pepper album, for which his longtime friend Peter Blake designed the front. Later, he designed Wings’ first album cover. His paintings and prints are held in public collections internationally
