Mater Dolorosa

In 2005, Chris Gollon chose to work with master printmaker Ian Wilkinson at the Cambridgeshire-based Limberhurst Press print studio. Ian has worked with many leading contemporary artists including Paula Rego, John Bellany, Eduardo Paolozzi, Elizabeth Frink and Anthony Gormley. In a very creative, technical collaboration with Ian Wilkinson, and using nineteen silk-screens, Chris Gollon produced ‘Mater Dolorosa’, and also ‘Einstein’ his first editions of silk-screen prints.
Published by IAP Fine Art, Mater Dolorosa is an edition of 100 silk-screen prints, each signed and numbered by the artist. It is also an official study for the final painting in Chris Gollon’s critically-acclaimed Fourteen Stations of the Cross, and is featured in the ISBN-numbered fine art catalogue ‘Stations of the Cross’ (pictured), a copy of which is supplied with each purchase.
This silk-screen print is derived from a painting of the same title, which was a study for Gollon’s critically-acclaimed Fourteen Stations of the Cross. Gollon then hand touched the silk-screens to make this original image. A print from this edition is also now used in selected services in St John on Bethnal Green, the grade-one listed church in London where Gollon’s Fourteen Stations of the Cross are permanently installed.
