Excerpt from the 2009 obituary in Britain's Guardian newspaper: "The abstract painter and sculptor John Edwards, who has died aged 71, was a rising star on the British art scene in the late 1960s and 70s. Long acknowledged as one of Britain's leading abstract artists, he also enjoyed acclaim in the US and India. He was a talented teacher and served as head of painting and sculpture at St Martin's School of Art, London, in the 1980s. After retiring from teaching, he maintained a prodigious output of paintings and sculptures over the next 20 years, and showed work regularly in exhibitions in London and abroad. Born in London, Edwards grew up in Hornsey. He studied at Hornsey College of Art, Crouch End, north London, and did further studies at Leeds University's Institute of Education and at l'Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Visuels, Brussels. He also taught at the School of Visual Arts, in New York City, at Syracuse University, New York state, and at the Painting School of Montmiral, in Drôme, south-east France. The Rowan Gallery in London gave him nine shows from 1967 to 1981, and he also had shows in Syracuse, Washington, San Francisco, Turin, Jaipur and New Delhi...."
