- Q4980016 abstract "Bryan Charnley (1949–1991) was a British artist most famous for a series of self portraits he painted examining his schizophrenia and the effect of the different medications he used to control the condition.Bryan Charnley intended his work to show the common humanity of the sufferer and how the artist can transform the most negative situations into the basis for creative inspiration.Bryan Charnley was born on 20 September 1949 in Stockton on Tees. With his twin brother he grew up in London, Chislehurst in Kent, Cranfield, where his father worked as a Senior Lecturer and finally in Bromham in Bedford. In 1967, aged 17 he suffered a nervous breakdown but was able to study at Leicester School of Art in 1968. He gained a place at Central School of Art and Design in Holborn, London, in 1969 but was unable to complete the course due to another breakdown, later diagnosed as acute schizophrenia. From 1971 until 1977 he lived at home with his parents between periods of hospitalisation and treatment including ECT. In 1978 he moved to Bedford and began painting. The first paintings were representational works including large flower paintings. From 1982 onwards his work began to address his inner life, dreams and mental states particularly the nature of schizophrenia. In 1984 four of his paintings were purchased by the Bethlem Royal Hospital for their permanent collection. He had a solo exhibition at the Dryden Street Gallery, Covent Garden in London 1989 and exhibited two paintings at the Visions exhibition at the Royal College of Art in 1990. However, the little recognition he received was outweighed by the day to day problems of his illness and the heavy medication he was prescribed to counter it. His final work, the 'Self Portrait Series' was painted as he experimented with varying dosages of medication. The 17 portraits show graphically the terrible suffering of mental illness. In July 1991 Bryan Charnley committed suicide. The 'Self Portrait Series' was exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery in 1992.In 2015 'Bryan Charnley: the art of schizophrenia' was the inaugural exhibition at the Bethlem Museum of the Mind.".
