Hugh Steers loved to paint cats, high heels and bathtubs. The latter illuminate, with their whiteness, many of his paintings, shown for the first time in France, in an exhibition that bears the title of one of them: Blue Towel, Red Tank , a scene showing a man in a scarlet undershirt kissing his companion passed out on the tiles. “In bathrooms, culture and instinct collide,” Hugh Steers told Art in America magazine . “It has to do with illness.”
