(1942-2022), the BBC television dance producer, was a pioneering and pivotal figure in the surge of dance on to television screens that, from the 1970s, established new dance at the forefront of contemporary British culture – a phenomenon that led to the ubiquity of the form today.
He was a great sponsor of contemporary artists and ceramicists over the last 30 years and a number of the works offered for sale by Gorringes include an original receipt of purchase from the artist or gallery.
