Peter Branfield is an artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Peter Branfield had a habit of turning plain paper into posters that startled you. In 1972 he wrapped a whole exhibition in one bold sheet called *Australian Prints*, as if to say the prints could walk off the wall and into your hallway. That habit—showing art outside museums—helped people see prints as everyday objects, not dusty treasures. If you’ve ever pinned a poster above your desk, you’ve felt his quiet trick.
