Francis Outred, the gallerist, describes Auerbach as 'a humble giant of figurative painting' whose passing signals the end of an era. His work embodies a vitality and urgency to reaffirm lived existence, intertwining fleeting moments with an archaeology of experience.
Colin Wiggins reflects on Auerbach's monumental impact, comparing him to Picasso: 'They are just magisterial things. And I've got no doubt that they're going to last the course and be seen as one of the key achievements of post-war painting.'
