    Richard Hamilton

    Richard Hamilton's studio at Northend: a tilted wooden drawing board and workbench with colour charts, prints and tools.

    A friendship and collaboration that began in 1980 at Hamilton’s home in Northend — word processors and hand-built cables, cataloguing and precision, and, resolved on his drawing board, the DIAB computer: an object designed by an artist, now in the collection of MoMA.
