Art | New books and highlights | Spring 2012

Welcome 

One of 2012’s highlights will undoubtedly be London’s Olympic Games. Scores of athletes 

will travel with British Airways (BA), official carriers for the Olympics, in search of sporting 

glory. Published to coincide with the Games, British Aviation Posters (see p. 2), produced in 

collaboration with BA and its archive, shows how art and design, but with a special focus on 

posters, were applied with great creativity and style to develop and promote aviation in the 

UK and beyond. Including the work of an impressive range of artists and designers, the book 

will be a must for art, design and aviation specialists and enthusiasts. 

Poster art is just one of a range of media represented in this season’s varied list. 

Complementing British Aviation Posters is a new book exploring the maps produced by 

the Underground, London Transport and its successor Transport for London (see p.3). 

Discussing early decorative maps, as exemplified by the work of Macdonald (Max) Gill, 

and the recognisable diagrammatic maps of more recent times, London Underground 

Maps provides a fascinating account of the capital’s innovative approach to decoding 

and promoting its complex underground network. With the arts of tapestry (see p.6) and 

ceramics (see p.9) also featuring within the pages of this catalogue, there will be something 

here to whet a range of appetites! 

If you’re looking for more of the best in modern British painting and sculpture, you’ll be 

excited by our latest selection of monographs. Prunella Clough (see p. 4), written by Frances 

Spalding, and packed with original research, provides the first comprehensive account of 

this remarkable British artist. Elsewhere, the tension between Francis Bacon’s ardent atheism 

and his recurrent use of religious symbols (see p.5) is explored expertly by Rina Arya. With a 

paperback edition of the hugely successful Kurt Jackson: A New Genre of Landscape Painting 

(see p. 7), a new book on innovative British artist Richard Woods (see p.7) and the latest 

volume in the prestigious British Sculptors and Sculpture series (see p. 9) also forthcoming, 

there is plenty here to keep your library up-to-date. 

Lund Humphries is also pleased to announce a new series of accessible, practical handbooks 

on International Art Business (see p. 8). Published in collaboration with Sotheby’s Institute, 

these authoritative reference guides will be invaluable for professionals working within art 

businesses of all kinds, as well those preparing for careers in the commercial art world.

British Aviation Posters 

Art, Design and Flight 

Scott Anthony and Oliver Green 

From Futurism and Modernism to Art Deco 

and Surrealism, aviation was from its earliest 

days inextricably linked with revolutionary 

new ways of seeing the world. Focusing on 

the golden age of British civil aviation, British 

Aviation Posters shows how art and design 

were applied with great creativity and style 

to develop and promote aviation in the UK 

and beyond. 

The story begins with the air shows and 

exhibitions of the early pioneers, through 

the start of regular passenger flights in the 

1920s and the creation of Imperial Airways 

as the UK national carrier in 1924. By the 

1930s passenger routes across the world 

were being developed and promoted with 

increasingly sophisticated visual publicity to 

persuade the British public to be more ‘air 

minded’ in a turbulent period of political and 

social upheaval. The New Elizabethan 

Age took UK aviation in new directions in the 

1950s with BOAC and BEA ushering in the 

development of jet airliners and a growing 

consumer market that needed to be serviced 

by new forms of marketing and promotion. 

Drawing on British Airways’ premier poster 

collection and featuring the work of such 

distinguished designers as Theyre Lee-Elliott, 

Ben Nicholson, Edward McKnight Kauffer, 

F.H.K. Henrion, Gabby Schreiber, Robin 

Day, Abram Games, Hugh Casson and Frank 

Wootton, British Aviation Posters offers a 

definitive account of this seminal period in 

modern UK design history as Oliver Green 

and Scott Anthony show how posters, 

publicity and graphic design were used 

to express the speed, progress and sheer 

excitement of flight.

London Underground Maps 

Art, Design and Cartography 

Claire Dobbin 

By documenting and guiding us on the 

journeys we make every day, maps influence 

the way we navigate and identify with our 

surroundings. The Underground, London 

Transport, and its successor Transport for 

London have produced and inspired maps 

which are navigational, decorative forms of 

publicity and works of art. This book, which 

draws on the rich collections of the London 

Transport Museum, sets out to explore this 

unique form of visual communication. 

Covering the period from 1900 to the 

present day, Claire Dobbin’s fascinating 

narrative provides a chronological account 

of the mapping of London’s Underground. 

Starting with the magnificent early 20th- 

century decorative maps of Macdonald Gill, 

the evolution of London’s diagrammatic 

Underground map, introduced by Harry 

Beck’s iconic 1931 design, is expertly 

told. The legacy of Beck’s inspiring design 

is highlighted through selected maps, 

artworks, posters and merchandise. 

Incorporating design, art, cartographic, social 

and transport history, London Underground 

Maps provides a fascinating account of the 

capital’s innovative approach to decoding 

and promoting its complex underground 

network. An accessible narrative coupled 

with first-class imagery make this book 

a must for lovers of art, design and 

cartography as well as the history of London.

Prunella Clough 

Regions Unmapped 

Frances Spalding 

Prunella Clough (1919-99) was one of the 

best and most original artists to emerge in 

the second half of the twentieth century. This 

book celebrates her outstanding contribution 

to British art, providing, for the first time, a 

comprehensive overview of Clough’s entire 

career. 

Situating the development of Clough’s art 

within the trajectory of her life, Frances 

Spalding explores the key themes and 

inspirations that informed the artist’s work. 

The author’s unique access to hitherto 

unpublished letters, a journal which Clough 

kept in the late 1940s and notebooks from 

the artist’s visits around England, combined 

with her extensive knowledge of twentiethcentury 

British art, ensures that this highly 

readable account of Clough’s life and work 

breaks new ground. 

Themes such as the importance of place 

in Clough’s oeuvre, and her interest in 

Surrealism, Neo-Romanticism and Abstract 

Expressionism, run alongside broader 

debates such as the artist’s position within 

the English art scene and her critical 

reception. Her relationship with her aunt, 

designer and architect Eileen Gray, is given 

due attention, as are other key alliances in 

her life. With its breadth of material, Prunella 

Clough: Regions Unmapped will appeal to a 

wide spectrum of readers, from those with a 

general interest in the artist and the period to 

curators, collectors, dealers and academics.

Francis Bacon 

Painting in a Godless World 

Rina Arya 

Throughout his career, Francis Bacon 

(1909-92) made many anti-religious and, 

more specifically, anti-Christian statements. 

Bacon was a militant atheist but his atheism 

was not a simple dismissal of religion and 

religious belief. He exploited the symbols of 

Christianity, especially the Crucifixion and 

the Pope, in order to show its untenability in 

the modern age. 

Setting out to account for Bacon’s 

recurrent and sustained use of religious 

symbols, Rina Arya explains how the artist 

redeployed religious iconography to convey 

an experience of the human condition, 

specifically animalism and mortality. By 

placing the work within the context of postwar 

philosophical pre-occupations with the 

death of God, the author provides a robust 

framework in which to view and interpret 

Bacon’s complex images. 

Refreshingly original, this book marks a 

new approach to appreciating the work of 

one of the leading artists of the twentieth 

century.

The Art of Modern Tapestry 

Dovecot Studios since 1912 

Edited by Elizabeth Cumming, with an essay by 

Dovecot Director David Weir 

Setting out to celebrate, document and 

discuss the work and role of an international 

tapestry workshop, Dovecot Studios, since 

its foundation in Edinburgh in 1912, this 

groundbreaking publication explores the 

artistic value, nature and identity of modern 

tapestry through images, essays and the 

commentaries of weavers, artists and 

patrons. 

Dovecot Studios has constantly evolved 

since it was established before the Great 

War. Initial Arts and Crafts ideals developed 

into a more proactive engagement with 

modernism from the 1950s, when designs 

came from leading British artists such 

as Graham Sutherland, Henry Moore, 

Stanley Spencer, Cecil Beaton and John 

Piper. In the 1960s international ambition 

partnered a quest for experimentation, as 

characterised by collaborations with artists 

James More, Dunedin Fund tapestry, 1986 

such as Eduardo Paolozzi, David Hockney, 

Robert Motherwell and Louise Nevelson. 

Throughout Dovecot’s long history many 

Scottish artists have worked with the tapestry 

studio, and their intuitive sense of design and 

colour has often been richly matched by the 

imagination of the artist weavers. Experiment 

and partnership with innovative artists and 

makers have been, and actively remain, key 

to Dovecot’s unique position within the fields 

of craft and contemporary art. 

Discussing Dovecot’s history along with its 

contemporary work, and exploring the range 

of textiles produced by the Studio – which 

include wall hangings, chair-cover designs, 

carpets, textile mobiles and formal robes 

– The Art of Modern Tapestry offers the 

definitive account of one of the world’s most 

innovative centres of textile-art production. 

Art historian and curator, Dr Elizabeth Cumming is an Honorary Research Fellow at the Universities 

of Glasgow and Edinburgh, and a former Keeper of the Edinburgh City Art Centre and lecturer 

in design history at Edinburgh College of Art. She has written many catalogues and articles on 

nineteenth- and twentieth-century Scottish art and design. Her books include The Arts and Crafts 

Movement (with Wendy Kaplan, 1991) and Hand, Heart and Soul: The Arts and Crafts Movement 

in Scotland (2006). David Weir practised as a lawyer in Glasgow and London before moving to 

live and work in France. Since 2000, as Director of Dovecot Studios, he has devoted his time to reenergising 

and developing its artistic vision and activity. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, David 

Weir is also a member of the Worshipful Company of Weavers and currently sits on the Board of 

Creative Edinburgh.

Kurt Jackson 

A New Genre of Landscape Painting 

New in Paperback 

Mark Cocker, Helen Dunmore, Bill Hare, Howard Jacobson, 

Richard Mabey, Philip Marsden, Bel Mooney, William Packer, John 

Russell Taylor, Tim Smit and Mike Tooby 

‘...a truly fascinating book about an 

immensely compelling and important 

contemporary artist.’ The Artist 

Exploring the career to date of artist and 

environmentalist Kurt Jackson (b.1961), 

this visually rich publication, now available 

as an attractive paperback, has at its centre 

the artist and the natural world. Jackson’s 

paintings are set in places that he has 

travelled to and explored regularly, and 

are created by an individual with a deep 

understanding of natural history and ecology, 

politics and environmental issues. 

Described in the Financial Times as ‘one 

of Britain’s most compelling contemporary 

painters’, Jackson has had a distinguished 

career spanning almost thirty years. An 

Oxbridge graduate in zoology, Jackson 

travelled widely before settling in Cornwall in 

1984 both to immerse himself in the arts and 

become more involved in his commitment 

to the environment. For Jackson, the fleeting 

impression is not of interest – in all his 

paintings his aim is to convey his feelings 

and sense of awareness of a particular 

environment that he knows intimately. 

Offering insights into the extensive range of 

materials and techniques that the artist uses, 

Kurt Jackson provides the definitive account 

of this fascinating artist’s career to date 

and as such is essential reading for anyone 

interested in 21st-century British art. 

The Art & Craft of Richard 

Woods 

Edited and with an Introduction by Paul Bonaventura 

The Art & Craft of Richard Woods is a 

uniquely revealing and beautifully designed 

publication that surveys the full extent of the 

artist's creativity from initial idea through to 

completed work. 

Covering the last decade of Woods's 

career, the book profiles a multitude of 

representative case studies. These studies 

provide detailed insights into the production 

processes associated with the entire range 

of the artist's output, including the interior 

and exterior installations for which he is 

best known, together with his paintings, 

sculptures, furniture, prints, fabrics and 

lighting. 

In his introductory essay, Paul Bonaventura 

explores the artist's approach to making, 

focusing on life in his busy studio. Thereafter 

each case study is contextualised in a 

series of short texts, ranging from personal 

commentaries by the artist's co-creatives, 

patrons, assistants and friends through 

to facsimiles of exhibition press releases, 

magazine reviews and news coverage. 

Complementing the hugely successful 

monograph on the artist, which was copublished 

by Lund Humphries in 2006, The 

Art & Craft of Richard Woods is essential 

reading for those interested in this innovative 

and multi-talented artist.

Announcing the first two books in a new series of 

Handbooks in International Art Business 

In 2012 Lund Humphries launches an exciting new partnership with Sotheby’s Institute of Art

art world, aimed at professionals working within art businesses of all kinds, as well those 

preparing for careers in the commercial art world. 

Chinese Antiquities 

An Introduction to the Art Market 

Audrey Wang 

Chinese Antiquities: An Introduction to the 

Art Market provides an essential guide to 

the growing market for Chinese antiquities, 

encompassing all sectors of the market, from 

Classical Chinese paintings and calligraphy to 

ceramics, jade, bronze and ritual sculpture. 

The different Western and Chinese 

perceptions of Chinese art are examined 

in detail throughout the book to provide 

an understanding of how the market for 

Chinese antiquities has developed over 

the last century. An historical analysis 

of the issues surrounding the infamous 

Yuanmingyuan incident of 1860, in which 

foreign troops plundered cartloads of 

Imperial Chinese treasures and shipped them 

to Europe, sets the scene for the current 

trend in China for patriotic art investments 

Corporate Art Collections 

A Handbook to Corporate Buying 

Charlotte Appleyard and James Salzmann 

This new volume in the series of Handbooks 

in International Art Business published 

in association with Sotheby’s Institute 

of Art offers a timely guide to corporate 

collecting, examining the history, nature and 

importance of corporate collecting and the 

different reasons for starting and maintaining 

corporate collections, including investment, 

cultural caché, and asset diversification. 

Why do institutions take the plunge into an 

asset class that is usually very far from their 

core businesses? The authors categorise 

modern corporate art collections into 

four broad categories. First, there is the 

traditional corporate collection, where works 

are purchased directly from galleries or 

artists to enhance the office environments. 

Many of the collections that fall into this 

category – largely banks or financialservice 

organisations – have some of the 

best-quality works of any corporately held 

and the repatriation of national treasures. 

The rise of the Chinese auction houses, 

and the growing prominence of Chinese 

art as one of the top commodities in the 

international art market, are also examined, 

bringing into question whether this recent 

phenomenon is merely a short-lived trend 

or a long-term fixture of the 21st-century art 

market. 

Aimed at current and aspiring collectors, 

investors and galleries interested in Chinese 

antiquities, the book sets out to demystify 

the process of buying and selling in the Asian 

context, highlighting Asia-specific issues 

that market-players might encounter and 

making this category of art more accessible 

to newcomers to the market. 

collection. The second category includes 

those collections that seek to say something 

about the company’s corporate identity: 

these collections have become very involved 

with how the company would like to project 

itself. The third category is philanthropic 

collections: those that structure their 

collection strategy around a charitable remit. 

And finally the all-rounders: those companies 

whose work with the arts permeates their 

identity, office environment, social outreach 

and sponsorship. 

Based on interviews with the curators, 

consultants and investors who run such 

collections, and more extended case studies 

of important collections worldwide, the book 

concludes with an examination of when 

corporate collecting becomes a liability 

and the market-impact of deaccessioning, 

looking ahead to the future of corporate 

collecting.

The Ceramic Art of James Tower 

Timothy Wilcox, with a Preface by Antony Gormley 

James Tower (1919-88) is widely regarded 

as one of the most distinctive figures in postwar 

British ceramics. Since his death over 

20 years ago, his work has been often cited 

for its dramatic visual qualities, its subtle 

exploration of the boundaries of art and 

craft, and its lyrical integration of references 

to nature and the cosmos into an essentially 

abstract language of form and surface 

decoration. 

This is the first single publication to be 

devoted to his work and will reveal to a 

new audience the extraordinary range and 

quality of his achievement. Tower’s career 

was unusual in inhabiting the worlds of 

fine art and ceramics which, in the 1950s 

and 1960s, still had only a low level of 

inter-penetration. Teaching at Corsham 

brought him into contact with some of the 

pioneering painters of post-war abstraction, 

including William Scott, Peter Lanyon and 

Howard Hodgkin, and as a potter Tower 

showed his work alongside Bernard Leach 

and Lucie Rie, contributing to a re-definition 

The Sculpture of F.E. McWilliam 

Denise Ferran and Valerie Holman 

The British Sculptors and Sculpture Series 

A highly respected sculptor, F.E. McWilliam 

(1909-92) was described by Bryan Robertson 

in 1992 as ‘one of the truest artists to work in 

England this century’. Yet despite achieving 

great acclaim in his lifetime, McWilliam’s 

contribution to modern art has been unduly 

neglected in recent years. This book, the first 

to include a comprehensive catalogue of the 

artist’s sculpture, re-establishes McWilliam’s 

considerable artistic reputation. 

F.E. McWilliam defied categorisation: his 

long and productive career resulted in a 

body of work which was impressively varied. 

His move away from Surrealism and a form 

of biomorphic abstraction which placed him 

within a particular artistic milieu enabled him 

to explore specific materials and themes with 

freedom. While he remained continuously 

inventive, at the heart of his work lies a 

of modern craft. During the 1960s and 

1970s he worked in white terra cotta and 

bronze, representing a diversity of sculptural 

practice during a period in which sculptors 

such as Anthony Caro and Phillip King 

were experimenting with new materials. 

From the late 1970s until his death, Tower 

concentrated again on glazed ceramic forms 

and was a highly original contributor to the 

‘New Ceramics’. 

This book provides a comprehensive visual 

document of Tower’s work, incorporating a 

complete illustrated catalogue. It includes a 

detailed and authoritative biography, setting 

Tower in the social and artistic context in 

which he lived and worked. Appealing to 

all those with an interest in post-war art and 

design, contemporary ceramics and the 

recent history of art schools, The Ceramic 

Art of James Tower is set to be the standard 

source of reference on Tower’s work, and 

a fascinating case-study of the cross-over 

between the worlds of art and craft. 

feeling for the human figure, not just as 

an object of perception but as a vehicle of 

sensation. His sculpture conveys precisely 

how a certain movement or emotion is 

experienced and it is characterised by a 

sense of contained energy, of imminent 

movement, or of rest that is only temporary 

and short-lived. 

The dynamism of McWilliam’s sculpture is 

captured in this important publication both 

through the expert text and the stunning 

imagery. An essential purchase for all those 

interested in 20th-century British art, The 

Sculpture of F.E. McWilliam will stand as the 

definitive study of this significant artist for 

many years to come.

Barbara Hepworth: 

The Plasters 

The Gift to Wakefield 

Edited by Sophie Bowness 

with contributions by Sophie 

Bowness, David Chipperfield, 

Frances Guy, Jackie Heuman, 

Tessa Jackson, Simon Wallis and 

Gordon Watson 

‘Sophie Bowness’s magnificent 

catalogue richly illustrates the works and 

illuminates their histories through archival 

photographs.’ TLS 

Celebrating the generous gift of Barbara 

Hepworth’s plasters to The Hepworth 

Wakefield by the Hepworth Estate, this 

groundbreaking publication combines a 

fully illustrated catalogue of the sculptor’s 

surviving prototypes in plaster, and 

occasionally aluminium, with a detailed 

analysis of her working methods and a 

comprehensive history of her work in 

bronze. 

In addition, insights into the building 

which is home to the collection are 

provided through essays exploring 

the history of The Hepworth and, in 

a contribution by David Chipperfield, 

the design of the new museum by his 

architectural practice. A fascinating 

account of the sculptor’s connections 

with Wakefield Art Gallery also 

features. 

John Craxton 

Ian Collins, with an Introduction 

by David Attenborough 

‘...this handsome and luxuriously 

illustrated volume is a delightful and 

affectionate tribute to a truly creative 

artist.’ Literary Review 

This is the first full-scale monograph on 

British artist John Craxton (1922-2009), 

a key figure in post-war painting who 

authorised this publication shortly before 

his death. 

Craxton was a brilliant and wellconnected 

artist with a passion for 

Greek life, light and landscape. Rejected 

for military service in 1941, he shared 

premises in London with Lucian Freud, 

provided by their benefactor and friend 

Peter Watson. Through Watson he met 

other Neo-Romantic artists, coming 

under the influence of William Blake, 

Samuel Palmer and Graham Sutherland. 

But by 1945 his work was more closely 

connected with that of European artists 

such as Picasso and Miró. Always longing 

to escape, Craxton travelled around 

the Mediterranean after World War II, 

finally settling in Crete from 1960, where 

he continued to develop his Romantic 

pastoral themes in sunburst images 

influenced by Byzantine mosaics. 

Ian Collins’s engaging text is informed by 

his many conversations with the artist, 

who was also a celebrated wit and storyteller, 

and is supported by more than 200 

reproductions of life-affirming paintings 

and drawings. 

Edward Burra 

Simon Martin, with 

contributions by Andrew 

Lambirth and Jane Stevenson 

Edward Burra (1905-76) was an English 

painter best known for his paintings 

of the seedy underworld of urban life. 

Yet, as this fascinating new monograph 

on his work reveals, his interests were 

much broader, incorporating landscape 

and still-life paintings, stage designs and 

book illustration. Somewhat neglected 

by histories of modern art because his 

singular vision was often at odds with the 

mainstream art world, his work is now 

due for a re-appraisal. 

Published to accompany a major 

exhibition of Burra’s paintings and 

drawings at Pallant House Gallery, this 

important book represents the first fullscale 

monograph on Edward Burra and 

reproduces 100 key paintings alongside 

drawings and a range of fascinating 

contextual material. It positions Burra 

as a major figure in the history of 20thcentury 

art, placing his work alongside 

that of the German Expressionists and 

other important contemporaries and 

influences, such as Surrealism and the 

macabre. Long awaited, this book will 

be widely welcomed by all those with 

an interest in the art of this fascinating 

maverick and documenter of modern 

life. 

John Byrne 

Art and Life 

Robert Hewison 

John Byrne (b.1940) grew up on the 

Ferguslie Park housing scheme in Paisley. 

He escaped work in a carpet factory to 

study at the Glasgow School of Art, and 

has since carved out a successful dual 

career as an artist and a writer. This is 

the first monograph to explore Byrne’s 

remarkable artistic journey in both the 

visual and literary fields, and celebrates 

his contribution to contemporary Scottish 

cultural identity. 

John Byrne’s biography reflects his 

diverse talents. He has designed theatre 

sets and record covers. His play The 

Slab Boys (1978) won him the Evening 

Standard’s most promising playwright 

award. The immensely successful, sixtime 

BAFTA award-winning television 

series, Tutti Frutti, appeared in 1987. 

All these achievements have developed 

alongside Byrne’s artistic career. A prolific 

painter, illustrator and print-maker, Byrne 

today boasts a range of works held in 

prestigious public collections such as The 

National Gallery of Art, Edinburgh. 

Including a valuable catalogue of Byrne’s 

editioned prints, Robert Hewison’s highly 

readable text provides a chronological, 

critical account of the work and life of the 

artist, making this book essential reading 

for art and cultural historians and general 

readers alike.

Peter Blake 

One man show 

Marco Livingstone 

This comprehensive illustrated survey of 

the work of Peter Blake (described in The 

Art Newspaper as ‘the defining book on 

the English artist’) is now available in a 

handsome paperback edition. 

Since his emergence in the early 1960s as 

a key member of the Pop Art movement, 

Peter Blake (b.1932) has been one of the 

best-known and widely loved artists of 

his generation. Blake’s reputation from 

the outset was based on working across 

all media. Though primarily a painter, 

he has produced collages, drawings, 

watercolours, sculpture, prints, as well 

as commercial art in the form of graphics 

and album covers, most notably his 

design for The Beatles’ Sgt Pepper album 

in 1967. 

Peter Blake: one man show considers the 

artist’s remarkable diversity, assessing 

his work across all media, from the 1950s 

to the present. Despite his forays into a 

range of more experimental media, Blake 

sees figurative painting as the core of his 

work, the trunk of a tree whose branches 

include excursions into Pop Art, collage, 

sculpture, graphics and printmaking. This 

book reflects the engagingly diverse and 

endlessly imaginative one-man show that 

constitutes the extraordinary and prolific 

work of Peter Blake. 

Sandra Blow 

Michael Bird 

’A fascinating read for any Blow 

enthusiast.’ Cornwall Today 

’Bird’s lavishly illustrated retrospective 

text, the first devoted to Blow, finally 

gives the artist and her large-scale, vividly 

hued, obdurately abstract work their due 

… Highly recommended.’ Choice 

Sandra Blow (1925-2006) is among the 

most important British artists of the later 

20th-century. During a time of rapid 

change in the art world, her commitment 

Michael Bird’s fascinating survey 

of Sandra Blow’s life and art is now 

available for the first time in a handsome 

paperback edition. Compiled in 

collaboration with the artist during 

the last years of her life, it provides a 

definitive overview of her career. The 

book is lavishly illustrated throughout 

with a fully representative selection of 

Blow’s work. 

Through close attention to Blow’s 

working methods, this book provides 

a unique insight into her creative 

process. It reveals the intensity of 

emotional engagement and technical 

experimentation that lie behind the 

apparent spontaneity of her vivid 

handling of materials, colour and form. 

W. Barns-Graham: 

A Studio Life 

New Centenary Edition 

Lynne Green 

British abstract painter Wilhelmina Barns- 

Graham (1912-2004) played a key role 

in the development of modern abstract 

art in Britain. This new paperback edition 

of Lynne Green’s classic monograph 

completes the story of the artist’s life and 

work with a new Coda covering Barns- 

Graham’s final years, which draws for the 

first time on the artist’s personal diaries 

and notebooks. 

Born in Fife, Scotland, for over sixty 

years Barns-Graham lived and worked 

in St Ives, at the heart of the avant-garde 

group of artists who made the town 

internationally famous. Lynne Green’s 

insightful text restores Wilhelmina Barns- 

Graham to her rightful place in the story 

of the St Ives School, establishes her 

personal achievement as a painter, and by 

implication the importance of her wider 

contribution to twentieth-century art. 

In the last decade of her life Barns- 

Graham’s creative invention blossomed 

and her output increased dramatically. 

In these years she worked with a new 

sense of urgency and creative freedom, 

in which risk-taking became a central 

theme. The result was some of the most 

exhilarating, joyful, and life-affirming 

work ever produced by a British artist. 

The St Ives Artists 

A Biography of Place and 

Time 

Michael Bird 

St Ives is unique in British art history. 

Between the Second World War and the 

1970s, many progressive artists chose to 

work and often settle around this small 

port in the far west of Cornwall. 

For the first time, this book fully 

integrates the St Ives artists into the 

cultural narrative of 20th-century Britain, 

especially from the 1930s onwards. 

It ranges from the intense hopes that 

accompanied the Labour victory in 1945 

to the explosion of consumerism and 

American influence in the 1950s, and 

beatnik youth culture of the 1960s – all 

of which connected interestingly with 

St Ives. The artists emerge as vivid and 

very different personalities, as often 

embroiled in conflict as in any shared 

artistic agenda. 

Drawing on fresh research, Michael 

Bird has created a fascinating and highly 

readable account of St Ives and its artists. 

The question ‘What was St Ives art 

really about?’ is often asked. This book 

provides some authoritative, provocative 

and entertaining answers.

London Transport 

Posters 

A Century of Art and 

Design 

Edited by David Bownes and 

Oliver Green with contributions 

by Jonathan Black, David 

Bownes, Emmanuelle Dirix, 

Claire Dobbin, Catherine Flood, 

Oliver Green, Bex Lewis, Alan 

Powers, Paul Rennie and Brian

London Transport Posters, now available 

in an attractive paperback edition 

at an accessible price, celebrates a 

century of outstanding graphic design 

commissioned by the Underground, 

London Transport, and its present-day 

successor, Transport for London. 

The book explores the organisation’s 

pioneering role as Britain’s greatest 

patron of poster art, a unique role 

developed in the early twentieth century 

under the visionary leadership of Frank 

Pick. The selected artworks and posters, 

many published here for the first time, 

reflect a dazzling variety of period 

styles and techniques, produced by 

an extraordinary range of artists and 

designers attracted by the Underground’s 

world-wide reputation. 

Cinemas in Britain 

A History of Cinema 

Architecture 

Richard Gray 

Despite an uneven history in terms of 

its popularity, the cinema continues to 

play an important role in British culture 

and cinema buildings are a vital part of 

communities across the country. This 

fascinating book is a comprehensive 

examination of the history of the cinema 

building in Britain, from its 19th-century 

origins right up to the present day. 

The earliest cinemas were little more than 

shop conversions or basic rectangular 

rooms. However, as popularity of 

film-going grew there was a great 

surge of new building, and cinemas 

became more complex in style. With 

the arrival of television in the late 1940s, 

cinema audiences dwindled, and a new 

type of building with several, smaller 

auditoria became necessary. The recent 

resurgence in the popularity of film-going 

has caused not only the arrival of the 

‘multiplex’ but also, more importantly, 

increasing recognition of the importance 

of the movie palaces of the halcyon days 

of cinema. 

Fully revised since its original publication 

in 1996, and including a gazetteer of 

surviving cinemas, Cinemas in Britain not 

only provides a full architectural history 

but also evokes the magic of moviegoing. 

A New Art from 

Emerging Markets 

Iain Robertson 

How can the world’s emerging markets, 

with newly acquired wealth, develop 

contemporary art which is both ‘modern’ 

and reflects their long cultural traditions 

and complex histories? A New Art from 

Emerging Markets sets out to address 

this question with specific reference to 

the contemporary art markets of China, 

South-East Asia, India, the Middle East 

and Iran. 

As well as providing a survey of emerging 

art markets throughout the world, the 

book is concerned with looking at how 

value in non-Western contemporary 

art is constructed largely by external 

political events and economic factors 

rather than aesthetic considerations. The 

book also considers whether it is better 

to let a new art market grow organically, 

driven by commercial imperatives, or for 

the government to step in to construct 

a cultural and economic infrastructure 

within which an art market can be placed. 

Written accessibly and engagingly 

for general readers as well as art 

professionals and investors, this book 

presents a fascinating overview of the 

historical context, cultural traditions and 

current political and economic factors 

affecting the market for contemporary art 

in these regions. 

The Story of De Stijl 

Mondrian to Van 

Doesburg 

Hans Janssen and Michael 

White 

In the early 1920s, a group of Dutch 

artists and architects influenced by some 

of the ideas of Dada, formed a movement 

called De Stijl (The Style). The Story of 

De Stijl presents work by Piet Mondrian, 

Theo van Doesburg, Gerrit Rietveld, 

and the other members of this influential 

group, as well as archival photographs of 

the artists. 

The authors – experts in this seminal 

abstract style that encompassed painting, 

sculpture, architecture, interior design, 

and more – explore the evolution of the 

movement not just through traditional 

art-historical analysis, but also through 

anecdotes, conversations, articles, and 

other contemporary sources. 

With more than 325 colour illustrations, 

The Story of De Stijl makes clear the 

lasting importance and influence of this 

once avant-garde movement.

Thomas Houseago 

What Went Down 

Lisa Le Feuvre and Rudi Fuchs 

with an interview between 

Michael Stanley and Thomas 

Houseago 

Thomas Houseago (b.1972) is one 

of the most unique and distinctive 

contemporary sculptors working today. 

This is the first ever monograph on his 

work and spans the last fifteen years of 

his career. 

Born in Leeds, but now based in Los 

Angeles, Houseago has come to 

prominence in recent years with his 

monumental, figurative sculptures that 

are charged with remarkable energy and 

vitality. Houseago’s sculptures possess 

a daring urgency, a tactility and brute 

physicality that expose the process of 

their own making. The visible ‘touch’ and 

‘imprint’ of the artist is nakedly evident. 

With texts by leading experts in the 

field, and featuring an interview with the 

artist, Thomas Houseago: What Went 

Down combines insightful analysis of 

the sculptor’s oeuvre with a generous 

selection of first-class colour imagery. 

For all those with a serious interest in 

contemporary art, this is an essential 

purchase.

Alessandro Raho 

Michael Bracewell and Nicholas 

Cullinan 

Exploring the career of Alessandro Raho 

(b.1971) from the early 1990s to the 

present day, this monograph, the first of 

its kind on the artist, places Raho in the 

context of the period in which his career 

was established and has flourished. 

A principal figure in the generation of 

contemporary artists leading the current 

revival of figurative painting in the UK, 

Raho graduated from Goldsmiths College 

in 1994. He was included, alongside 

contemporaries such as Damien Hirst, 

Tracey Emin and the Chapman Brothers, 

in the groundbreaking exhibition Brilliant! 

New Art from London at the Walker Art 

Center, Minneapolis, in 1995. It was 

through this exhibition that the YBAs 

began to establish an international 

reputation, and it is now recognised 

as one of the defining moments in 

contemporary British art. 

Fifteen years on, Raho’s work offers 

a quieter sensibility to that of his YBA 

peers. Exploring the major themes and 

subjects found in his work, alongside his 

artistic and philosophic influences, this 

groundbreaking publication will be an 

essential purchase for all those interested 

in contemporary art. 

Tania Kovats 

Jeremy Millar and Philip 

Hoare 

After completing her MA at the Royal 

College of Art in 1990, Tania Kovats 

(b.1966) won the Barclays Young 

Contemporaries award at the Serpentine 

Gallery in 1991. The intervening years 

have seen Kovats’ early artistic promise 

grow and develop and today she stands 

as an important figure within British 

contemporary art. This monograph, the 

first of its kind, is a much-needed addition 

to the scant literature available on this 

original artist. 

The highly controversial Virgin in a 

Condom introduced Kovats’ work to the 

wider artistic community. However, this 

piece is unrepresentative of an oeuvre 

which is dominated by the artist’s primary 

interest in the landscape. Her sculptural 

forms and drawings are pre-occupied 

with the earth’s shifting geology – cliff 

edges, canons, coastlines feature often. 

Like the natural world which inspires it, 

Kovats’ work is constantly shifting. This 

insightful monograph reveals the twists 

and turns of the artist’s career to date 

– from her creations as fledgling artist 

to Kovats’ most recent successes which 

include the prestigious commission, to 

mark the 200th anniversary of Charles 

Darwin’s birth, to create a permanent 

work in London’s Natural History 

Museum. For all those interested in 

contemporary British art, this book is an 

essential purchase. 

Clive Head 

Michael Paraskos, with a 

Foreword by Jools Holland 

Clive Head (b.1965) is the leading 

British realist painter of his generation, 

known for his striking paintings of 

urban landscapes. He has achieved a 

worldwide reputation and his work is 

held in private and public collections 

internationally. 

This is the first full-length monograph on 

his work and sets out to introduce it to a 

wider audience. It incorporates a short 

history of Clive Head’s work to date, 

examining a number of his paintings in 

detail in order to illuminate his working 

processes. Michael Paraskos argues that 

Head’s paintings, in their depiction of 

multiple viewpoints, have parallels with 

Cubism, although unlike the Cubists 

Head seeks to unify multiple viewpoints 

into a coherent scene, so that the 

shattering effect disappears. This places 

Head at the forefront of contemporary 

aesthetic theory and practice as he seeks 

to reinvent realist painting for the 21st 

century. 

The book is illustrated with 100 largeformat 

images, which will help to 

establish Clive Head as a leading figure in 

contemporary painting.

Surreal Friends 

Leonora Carrington, 

Remedios Varo and Kati 

Horna 

Stefan van Raay, Joanna 

Moorhead and Teresa Arcq 

with contributions by Sharon- 

Michi Kusunoki and Antonio 

Rodriguez Rivera 

Surreal Friends brings together for the 

first time the work of three women 

Surrealist artists, friends in exile in 

Mexico in the 1940s. 

Leonora Carrington came to Mexico in 

the 1940s when her love affair with Max 

Ernst was interrupted by the outbreak of 

the Second World War. Remedios Varo 

arrived in Mexico City in 1941, having 

fled Nazi-occupied France with her lover, 

the French Surrealist poet Benjamin 

Péret. Until her early death in 1963 she 

produced a wealth of paintings inspired 

by the spirit and freedom of Mexico. 

Kati Horna was born in Hungary and 

moved to Paris to pursue a career as a 

photographer. With her partner José 

Horna she documented the Spanish 

Civil War, before moving with him to 

Mexico City in 1939 where she became a 

photojournalist. 

For all three women, Mexico offered 

freedom to explore their art. Surreal 

Friends tells the fascinating story of their 

artistic friendship. 

F.C.B. Cadell 

The Life and Works of a 

Scottish Colourist 

1883-1937 

Tom Hewlett and Duncan 

Macmillan, with a Foreword by 

Timothy Clifford 

Originally published in 1988, F.C.B. 

Cadell: The Life and Works of a Scottish 

Colourist 1883-1937 was the first 

book devoted entirely to the life of the 

remarkable artist, and leading Scottish 

Colourist, F.C.B. Cadell. Now fully 

revised, this expanded edition includes a 

new essay by Duncan Macmillan which 

complements the fascinating biographical 

materials presented in Tom Hewlett’s 

original text. 

Highlighting the artist’s outgoing and 

generous personality and his wit, the 

narrative also demonstrates Cadell’s 

extraordinarily versatile artistic talent, 

which helped to lay the foundations 

of twentieth-century Scottish art. 

Works which combined well-defined 

structures with striking primary colours 

placed him alongside artists S.J. Peploe, 

J.D. Fergusson and Leslie Hunter – a 

respected grouping now recognised 

internationally as the Scottish Colourists. 

Including 200 images, the majority of 

which are reproduced in colour, this 

visually rich publication is an invaluable 

resource for anyone interested in 

twentieth-century Scottish art. 

Leonora Carrington 

Surrealism, Alchemy and 

Art 

Susan L. Aberth 

Now available for the first time in 

paperback, this book remains the 

definitive survey of the life and work 

of Surrealist artist Leonora Carrington 

(b.1917). 

Carrington burst onto the Surrealist 

scene in 1936, when she escaped the 

demands of her wealthy English family by 

running away to Paris with her lover Max 

Ernst. She was immediately championed 

by André Breton, who responded 

enthusiastically to her fantastical, dark 

and satirical writing style and her interest 

in fairy tales and the occult. 

After the Second World War, Carrington 

ended up in the 1940s as part of the 

circle of Surrealist European émigrés 

living in Mexico City. Close friends with 

Luis Bunuel, Benjamin Péret, Octavio Paz 

and a host of both expatriate Surrealists 

and Mexican modernists, Carrington 

was at the centre of Mexican cultural 

life, while still maintaining her European 

connections. 

Leonora Carrington: Surrealism, Alchemy 

and Art provides a fascinating overview 

of this intriguing artist’s rich body of 

work. 

Ivon Hitchens 

Peter Khoroche 

‘... it remains the most comprehensive 

account of his life and work and draws 

on much of the artist’s own writings and 

unpublished correspondence.’ Arlis 

Ivon Hitchens (1893-1979) is widely 

regarded as the outstanding English 

landscape painter of the twentieth 

century. Immediately recognisable by 

its daring yet subtle use of colour and 

brushmark to evoke the spirit of place, his 

work is to be found in public and private 

collections throughout the world. 

In this, the definitive study of Hitchens’ 

life and work now issued in a new, 

revised edition, Peter Khoroche draws 

on the painter’s published writings, 

correspondence and conversation to 

create a critical reappraisal of Hitchens’ 

theory and practice. He surveys the 

entire oeuvre (still-lifes, flower pieces, 

nudes, interiors and large-scale murals 

besides the landscapes), a huge legacy of 

work spanning sixty years, and charts the 

journey from conventional beginnings to 

‘figurative abstraction’. 

A new selection of over 100 colour 

images provide a retrospective exhibition 

covering Hitchens’ whole career. These 

illustrations, examples of his best and 

most characteristic painting in all genres, 

demonstrate the artist’s outstanding 

talents and reinforce his standing as a key 

figure in the history of British art.

Mary Fedden 

Enigmas and Variations 

Christopher Andreae 

‘This book is a delight...’ RA Magazine 

Mary Fedden (born 1915) is one of 

Britain’s most popular living artists. The 

focus of this new book is the artist’s 

creative process in various different 

media – oil, gouache, pencil and collage. 

While Fedden is often considered almost 

exclusively a still-life painter, still life is far 

from being her only preoccupation, as 

this book shows. 

In an engaging text, which draws on 

numerous conversations with the artist, 

Christopher Andreae considers why Mary 

Fedden has such a popular following, 

looks at the English quality of her work, 

and talks about the commercialisation of 

her art and her attitudes to the art market. 

Fedden is shown to be an original, serious 

and prolific artist, a draftsman of unusual 

sensitivity and prowess, and a colourist of 

power and subtlety. 

Profusely illustrated with works from 

private and public collections, this is 

a book for Mary Fedden’s existing 

devotees as well as newcomers to her 

work. 

Barbara Rae 

Bill Hare, Andrew Lambirth and 

Gareth Wardell 

Barbara Rae (b. 1943) is a renowned 

and popular Scottish colourist and 

Royal Academician. This book traces the 

development of Rae’s work, from her 

early days as a student and lecturer in 

Edinburgh and Glasgow, and looks at the 

influence that her extensive travels have 

had on her painting. The reader comes 

to an understanding of the importance of 

place in Rae’s work and at the same time 

gains an insight into how the structure of 

a landscape is simply the starting-point 

for an experimental studio process. 

The book includes an extensive interview 

with the artist by Andrew Lambirth, in 

which Rae reveals details of her early life 

and influences, the fascinating secrets of 

what goes on in her studio, her materials 

and techniques, and her ‘pure pleasure 

of painting’. The essay by Bill Hare 

examines the role of landscape in Rae’s 

art, considering her work in the context of 

Western traditions and 20th-century art; 

and Gareth Wardell contributes a series 

of short texts about the key places which 

have inspired the artist. 

The contrasting approaches of these 

authors, alongside the lavish colour 

illustrations of Barbara Rae’s unique work, 

make this an important and engaging 

homage to her life. 

Winifred Nicholson 

Christopher Andreae 

Luminosity, open space and quick 

movements characterise Winifred 

Nicholson’s paintings. Flowers on 

windowsills are a favourite subject. 

This book shows Winifred Nicholson as 

much more than a ‘flower painter’. She 

managed an unusually creative balance 

between motherhood and painting, her 

children becoming subjects – as did her 

husband, the artist Ben Nicholson. Too 

often given a cursory mention as his first 

wife, Winifred warrants independent 

recognition for the striking originality of 

her own work. 

Born in 1893 into the aristocratic 

Howard family, Winifred Nicholson, 

experimenting alongside Ben Nicholson, 

emerged as a ground-breaking painter in 

the 1920s. In 1930s Paris she investigated 

abstraction. After the Second World 

War she continued to paint the world 

immediately around her – in her native 

Cumberland and on many painting trips. 

This exciting book, which draws on 

Winifred’s extensive correspondence 

and reproduces many previously 

unpublished paintings, offers a fresh and 

rounded view of Winifred Nicholson’s life 

and art. 

Sheila Fell 

A Passion for Paint 

Cate Haste, with a Foreword by 

Frank Auerbach 

Lakeland Book of the Year 2011 

Born into a mining family in rural 

Cumberland, British painter Sheila Fell 

(1931-79) studied at Carlisle College 

of Art, then at St Martin’s School of Art 

in London. Though she spent her adult 

life in London, her artistic inspiration 

came from the dramatic images of the 

landscape of her childhood in the tough 

northern fells, which she interpreted 

with a unique intensity, authenticity and 

expressive power. 

Talented, determined and charismatic, 

Sheila Fell was one of the very few 

women artists to achieve national 

recognition in the 1950s and 1960s and 

was one of the youngest artists ever to be 

elected a Royal Academician in 1974. L.S. 

Lowry praised her as the best landscape 

painter of the age and became her 

lifelong supporter and patron. 

Sheila Fell’s tragic early death in 1979 cut 

short her burgeoning artistic career. This 

book, the first comprehensive study of 

her life and work, draws on previously 

unpublished letters and archive sources 

to establish Sheila Fell as a significant 

force in 20th-century British figurative 

painting.

Terry Frost Prints 

A Catalogue Raisonné 

Dominic Kemp with 

contributions by John Hoyland, 

Stanley Jones, Brad Faine and 

Charles Booth-Clibborn 

Painter, printmaker and teacher Sir Terry 

Frost RA (1915-2003) was a key figure in 

the development of British 20th-century 

abstract art. He was also a prolific 

printmaker, and this important publication 

brings together, for the first time, a 

complete catalogue of the artist’s prints. 

The result is a colourful visual history of 

Frost’s remarkable printmaking career. 

Discovering a natural ability to capture 

likenesses, Frost began to explore his 

artistic talents when he was a prisoner of 

war. During the late 1940s, he honed and 

developed his artistic skills as a student 

at the Camberwell School of Arts and 

Crafts. Dividing his time between the 

thriving art scenes of London and St 

Ives during the 1950s, Frost embraced 

abstraction and soon established himself 

as a leading British artist – a reputation 

which is still felt today. 

Combining scholarship with arresting 

imagery, Terry Frost Prints offers both 

reference value and visual delight and as 

such is an essential purchase for all those 

interested in this major British artist. 

Ben Nicholson 

Drawings and Painted 

Reliefs 

Peter Khoroche 

‘ Using previously unpublished letters 

and rarely seen sketches, Peter Khoroche 

has produced an attractive, informative 

and (an increasing rarity these days) wellwritten 

account of Nicholson’s life and 

work.’ Modern Painters 

Though it gives an account of his entire 

career, this book, now available in 

paperback, is the first to focus on the 

works of Ben Nicholson’s artistic maturity 

– the drawings and painted reliefs made 

between 1950 and 1975. Together with 

the white reliefs of 1934-9, these are the 

works by which he himself wished to be 

judged. 

The 120 illustrations include a large 

number of works rarely or never 

reproduced before, and much of the 

extensive quotation from Nicholson’s 

own writing has not previously been 

published. The author’s fresh approach 

and sympathetic insight reveal the 

underlying ideas behind the many shifts 

of style and changes of medium in 

Nicholson’s long career, making sense of 

it as a coherent whole. 

Albert Irvin 

The Complete Prints 

Mary Rose Beaumont 

Albert Irvin (b. 1922) is renowned for 

creating energetic, colourful paintings 

which suggest a fresh, youthful zest. 

Equally vibrant are his prints, which 

are catalogued for the first time in this 

invaluable publication. 

Irvin came relatively late to printmaking 

– he did not properly explore the 

medium until the mid-1970s when 

he experimented with lithography. It 

was not, however, until 1980, the year 

which marked the beginning of his 

long-term relationship with Advanced 

Graphics London, that Irvin discovered 

a new outlet for his creativity through 

screenprinting. The resulting prints, 

almost exclusively produced with 

Advanced Graphics, consolidate and add 

to Irvin’s rich body of work. 

An insightful text by Mary Rose 

Beaumont, which provides an in-depth 

discussion of the artist’s printmaking 

career to date, complements the 

excellent catalogue of works, which 

includes first-class reproductions which 

reaffirm the artist’s position as one of 

Britain’s foremost printmakers. 

Cyril Power Linocuts 

A Complete Catalogue 

Philip Vann 

Cyril E. Power (1872-1951) was a leading 

member of the Grosvenor School of 

Modern Art in London in the 1920s and 

1930s under the inspirational leadership 

of Claude Flight. Flight’s Grosvenor 

School artists were responsible for the 

remarkable rise of the colour linocut print 

during this period, and their significance 

as a major contribution to modern British 

art between the wars has not yet been 

fully and widely appreciated. 

This book assesses Cyril Power’s 

achievement as a dynamic avant-garde 

printmaker, and shows how in his work 

the potential of linocut printmaking as 

a semi-abstract language was realised 

to an impressively original degree. It 

is the first book to establish Power as 

an extraordinarily creative printmaker 

in his own right, cataloguing and 

illustrating in colour for the first time 

all 46 of his linocuts. The complete 

catalogue is followed by a selection of 

posters that Power designed for London 

Underground with Sybil Andrews, under 

the name of Andrew Power. 

Cyril Power Linocuts is an essential 

resource for all those with a specialist or 

amateur interest in the vibrant prints of 

this period.

The Pre-Raphaelite 

Lens 

British Photography and 

Painting, 1848-1875 

Diane Waggoner with essays by 

Tim Barringer, Joanne Lukitsh, 

Jennifer L. Roberts and Britt 

Salvesen 

As photography steadily gained a 

foothold in the 1840s, a group of British 

painters calling themselves the Pre- 

Raphaelites came of age. Answering John 

Ruskin’s call to study nature, ‘rejecting 

nothing, selecting nothing, and scorning 

nothing,’ these young painters were also 

spurred on by the possibilities of the new 

medium of photography (introduced in 

1839), particularly its ability to capture 

every nuance, every detail. And yet, the 

Pre-Raphaelites’ debt to photography has 

barely been acknowledged. 

This volume explores the rich dialogue 

between photography and painting 

through the themes of landscape, 

portraiture, literary and historical 

narratives and modern-life subjects. 

These artists – from photographers Lewis 

Carroll, Julia Margaret Cameron, Roger 

Fenton, Henry Peach Robinson and Oscar 

Gustave Rejlander, to such painters as 

John Everett Millais, William Holman 

Hunt, Dante Gabriel Rossetti and John 

William Inchbold – not only had much in 

common, but also upended traditional 

approaches to making pictures. 

Claude Lorrain: 

The Enchanted 

Landscape 

Martin Sonnabend and Jon 

Whiteley with Christian 

Ruemelin 

Claude Lorrain (1604-82) is known as the 

father of European landscape painting. 

His influence has been enormous, not 

only on the art of his immediate followers 

but on European landscape painters 

throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. 

The impact of his art has been felt 

particularly in Britain, where 18th- and 

early 19th-century artists, collectors and 

connoisseurs contributed to a cult of 

Claude which has left a lasting effect on 

British attitudes to the countryside. 

As a result, Claude’s art has become 

very familiar and we have tended to 

see Claude through his influence. This 

fascinating book, which accompanied a 

major exhibition of Claude’s work at the 

Ashmolean Museum, Oxford and the 

Städel Museum, Frankfurt, sets out to reappraise 

his work and look at it through 

fresh eyes. It unites in a single volume 

paintings, drawings and prints from all 

periods of the artist’s life. 

The range of works reproduced, 

alongside its critical scholarly text, make 

it an essential purchase for all those 

interested in Claude, the landscape, and 

European landscape painting in general. 

The Pre-Raphaelites 

and Italy 

Colin Harrison and Christopher 

Newall with essays by Maurizio 

Isabella and Martin McLaughlin 

This important book, published to 

accompany a major exhibition at the 

Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, is the 

first to explore the fascination of the 

Pre-Raphaelite painters with Italy: its 

landscape, art and culture. 

Covering the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood 

in the broadest sense, from its foundation 

in 1848 to the second generation 

(including Burne-Jones and Crane), it also 

includes the works of a group of English 

artists known as the Etruscans, who were 

followers of the Italian painter Giovanni 

Costa. Ruskin, whose awareness of 

Italy was both imaginative and visceral 

and who made numerous trips to Italy 

throughout his life, emerges as a key 

influence on the relationship of the Pre- 

Raphaelite painters to Italian culture. 

Featuring full-colour illustrations of the 

138 paintings in the exhibition, including 

works in private collections not previously 

reproduced, The Pre-Raphaelites and 

Italy examines the relationship of the 

Pre-Raphaelite brothers to Italy and to 

each other in a fresh and original way and 

will be essential reading for all students of 

19th-century art and culture. 

Ruskin’s Venice 

The Stones Revisited 

Compiled and with photographs 

by Sarah Quill with introductions 

by Alan Windsor 

John Ruskin’s masterpiece The Stones of 

Venice (1851–53) was one of the most 

influential books on art and architecture 

ever written and is still regarded as a 

classic work. However, the problems 

posed by its length make it a challenge to 

read in its entirety. 

Sarah Quill has resolved this challenge 

by selecting Ruskin’s descriptions of 

individual buildings and linking them 

to her own photographs of the same 

buildings, so creating a fascinating guide 

that fuses Ruskin’s vision of the city with 

images of the present day. Covering a 

wide range of subjects Quill’s glorious 

photographs illuminate Ruskin’s words 

and record the fine architectural details 

described by him. In addition, many of 

Ruskin’s own drawings and watercolours 

are reproduced, along with nineteenthcentury 

engravings, providing an 

intriguing visual comparison between the 

Venice he encountered over 150 years 

ago and the city we see today. 

The result is a beautifully illustrated 

book. Uniting the historical with the 

present day, Ruskin’s Venice: The Stones 

Revisited is a unique companion guide for 

both the seasoned and first-time traveller 

to Venice.

The Drawings of 

Henry Moore 

Andrew Causey 

Henry Moore’s Shelter Drawings are 

universally recognised as a key element 

of his oeuvre. However, these drawings 

should not be seen in isolation: this 

volume provides a highly readable 

account of the development of Moore’s 

work as a draughtsman so providing a 

well-rounded discussion of this significant 

aspect of his artistic output. 

In 1953 Moore wrote, ‘there is a general 

idea that sculptors’ drawings should be 

diagrammatic studies, without any sense 

of background behind the object or of 

any atmosphere around it. […] And yet 

the sculptor is as much concerned with 

space as the painter.’ This statement gains 

resonance in the pages of this book – it 

becomes clear that Moore’s drawing 

often ran ahead of his sculpture and 

that at certain points he was exercising 

an almost parallel career exploring 

essentially pictorial ideas that were 

difficult or even impossible to realise in 

sculpture. 

Including a wealth of colour 

reproductions, The Drawings of Henry 

Moore balances first-class imagery with 

discussion of a range of fascinating 

themes. For both scholars and 

enthusiasts, it is an essential resource. 

Celebrating Moore 

Works from the Collection 

of The Henry Moore 

Foundation 

David Mitchinson 

Celebrating Moore is the biggest and 

most comprehensive single volume 

to be produced on the artist’s oeuvre, 

reproducing in colour over 250 of Henry 

Moore’s most important sculptural works. 

Originally published to celebrate the 

centenary of Moore’s birth in 1998, it is 

now available in paperback. 

David Mitchinson’s introductory essay 

traces the formation of the Henry Moore 

Foundation’s Collection, the most 

important and comprehensive single 

group of Moore’s work in all media 

whilst the core of the book consists 

of a selection of 278 works from the 

Foundation’s Collection, illustrated 

in colour and with full catalogue 

information. Extended captions 

have been contributed by a range of 

distinguished artists, art critics and art 

historians. Their detailed analysis of so 

many of Moore’s sculptures and drawings 

adds significantly to the understanding 

of his work. 

Celebrating Moore makes an essential 

contribution to the study and 

appreciation of Moore’s work – for 

scholars, art professionals and enthusiasts 

alike. 

London’s War 

The Shelter Drawings of 

Henry Moore 

Julian Andrews 

Early in the Second World War, Henry 

Moore had to give up working on 

sculpture when his Hampstead studio 

was bombed. Instead he concentrated on 

drawing, creating a monumental series 

of works showing the plight of people 

sheltering in the London Underground. 

’The official shelters were insufficient’, he 

wrote. ‘People had taken to rolling their 

blankets out about eight or nine o’clock 

in the evening, going down into the Tube 

stations and settling on the platforms ... 

It was like a huge city in the bowels of 

the earth. When I first saw it quite by 

accident – I had gone into one of them 

during an air raid – I saw hundreds of 

Henry Moore Reclining Figures.’ 

This is the first book to consider Moore’s 

visual documentation of the shelters 

within the context of the events of the 

London Blitz of 1940-41. Julian Andrews 

looks at Moore’s personal and political 

feelings about the coming war and his 

doubts about working as an Official 

War Artist, comparing Moore’s wartime 

drawings to works by other artists and to 

documentary photographs. In addition, 

the author considers the influence of the 

Shelter Drawings on people’s feelings 

about the Blitz and their effect on public 

attitudes towards Moore’s work. 

Henry Moore 

Textiles 

Edited by Anita Feldman with an 

introduction by Sue Prichard 

Widely hailed as a revelation and as a 

beautiful creation in its own right when 

first published in hardback, Henry Moore 

Textiles is now available in a handsome 

paperback edition to coincide with 

ongoing exhibitions of Moore’s work. 

Moore’s numerous designs for textiles, 

only a few of which reached production, 

have until recently remained virtually 

unknown. Yet these compositions reveal 

many illuminating aspects of his work 

and are intricately connected to his aims, 

particularly as a Socialist who believed 

that art could function as an intrinsic part 

of daily life, stimulating a new approach 

to living through contemporary design 

and materials. 

This book surveys and interprets Moore’s 

fabrics, printed in numerous colourways, 

for scarves, dress and upholstery fabrics 

as well as large-scale wall panels. Also 

illustrated are nineteen designs for 

textiles discovered as recently as 2006, 

alongside many others reproduced in 

their true and vibrant colours as never 

before. It is hoped that the publication 

will foster a hitherto neglected aspect of 

the artist’s work and encourage others 

to bring to light further designs and 

colourways.

Anthony Caro 

5-volume Boxed Set 

The Definitive Series on 

the Sculpture of Anthony 

Caro 

Edited by Karen Wilkin 

Since the mid-1950s, when Anthony 

Caro first announced himself as a young 

sculptor to be reckoned with, he has 

restlessly explored an unpredictable 

range of sculptural possibilities, testing 

limits and positing new ideas about the 

nature of eloquent three-dimensional 

objects. Through his expansion 

and transformation of the legacy of 

construction in metal pioneered by Julio 

González and Pablo Picasso, and further 

developed by David Smith in the USA, 

Caro has created a new, multivalent 

language of three-dimensional 

abstraction. 

The five volumes in this box set, which 

has been specially designed by Anthony 

Caro, examine the various aspects of 

Caro’s evolution individually, tracing 

the permutations of different themes 

– narrative, volume and mass, line and 

openness – throughout his work, over 

time. Each volume is independent 

and explores different territory, but 

cumulatively, by tracing these dominant 

themes, they provide new insight into the 

achievement of one of the undisputed 

giants of modernist art. 

Alan Reynolds 

The Making of a 

Concretist Artist 

Michael Harrison with an essay 

by Susanne Pfleger 

Alan Reynolds (b.1926) is an English artist 

of international repute, whose career falls 

into two unequal halves: the landscape 

and abstract painter of the 1950s and 

1960s, and the constructive artist of 

the last forty years. This illustrated 

monograph is the first book to bring 

together these two different bodies of 

work and to provide a complete overview 

of Reynolds’ development as an artist. 

This book traces the progress of Alan 

Reynolds’ work from the early landscapes 

to the tonal modular drawings and 

constructed white reliefs of the last 

thirty years. Author Michael Harrison 

has worked closely with the artist to 

produce an insightful analysis of this 

diverse and fascinating body of work. 

The book also reflects Alan Reynolds’ 

reception in Europe with an essay by 

Professor Susanne Pfleger, Director of the 

Städtischen Galerie, Wolfsburg.

Adrian Heath 

Jane Rye 

This is the first book on British abstract 

painter Adrian Heath (1920-92), who was 

a member of the Constructivist circle and 

a pioneer of abstraction in Britain in the 

post-war period. 

Adrian Heath was born in Burma and 

studied art under Stanhope Forbes in 

Newlyn before attending the Slade 

School of Fine Art in 1939. He returned 

to the Slade after the war and became a 

pivotal member of the circle of abstract 

artists around Victor Pasmore in the 

late 1940s, which included Mary and 

Kenneth Martin and Anthony Hill. The 

three exhibitions of art and design held 

in Heath’s Fitzroy Street studio in 1952/3 

have become legendary in the history of 

post-war British modernism, and he is 

an important link between the abstract 

painters of St Ives and their Constructivist 

London counterparts. 

Jane Rye paints a rounded portrait of 

Adrian Heath’s life and career, alongside 

reproductions of a wide selection of work 

from his entire oeuvre, and gives a clear

Herman’s career in equal detail, and 

to place his life and work in a broader

analysis, Brian O’Doherty/Patrick 

Ireland: Between Categories unravels a 

remarkable career to present a wealth 

of material with a distinct attitude and 

original vision.

Crusader Art 

The Art of the Crusaders in the Holy 

Land, 1099-1291 

Jaroslav Folda 

The Crusades were one of the most 

important and recognizable features of 

the European Middle Ages. One of the 

least known aspects of the Crusades is 

the art that was commissioned by the 

Crusaders in the Holy Land from the 

time they took Jerusalem in July 1099 to 

the time they were pushed into the sea 

by the Mamluks in 1291. This book tells 

the fascinating story of Crusader art. It 

will be essential reading for scholars, 

students and enthusiasts alike.

The Darker Side of Light 

Arts of Privacy, 1850-1900 

Peter Parshall with contributions by S. 

Hollis Clayson, Christiane Hertel and 

Nicholas Penny 

For many today, the art of the late 19th 

century is dominated by Impressionism 

and Post-impressionism. By explicating 

a range of highly engaging, often 

mysterious and beautiful prints, 

drawings and small sculptures, 

The Darker Side of Light evokes 

the shadowed interiors and private 

introspections that compose a far less 

familiar history of late 19th-century art. 

Design and Science 

The Life and Work of Will Burtin 

R. Roger Remington and Robert S.P. 

Fripp 

Design and Science is an account of 

the life of Will Burtin who, it has been 

said, was to graphic design what Albert 

Einstein was to physics. His work was 

of enormous scope working for the 

likes of magazines and pharmaceutical 

companies. Best known for his giant, 

walk-through scientific models of the 

brain and a blood cell, Will Burtin 

receives here the treatment he deserves 

as one of the greatest designers of the 

20th century. 

Elizabeth Blackadder 

Duncan Macmillan

audience. 

The England of Eric Ravilious 

Freda Constable with Sue Simon 

Acknowledged as one of the greatest

oeuvre was generally neglected until 

the publication of this book. This 

paperback reissue was published in the 

centenary of the artist’s birth.

gained acclaim in the 1950s, when 

he represented Britain at the Venice 

Biennale along with the other ‘Kitchen 

Sink’ painters with whom he was 

associated: John Bratby, Edward 

Middleditch and Jack Smith. This is 

the first book to trace Greaves’s entire 

career to date, providing insight into 

how his work developed from the social 

realism of the 1950s to a more heraldic 

style that paralleled 1960s Pop Art. 

Donald Hamilton Fraser: A 

Retrospective 

Metamorphosis not Metaphor 

Clare Clinton

work as an artist, both in painting 

and in printmaking. It examines his 

early abstract works, the landscapes

as his depictions of figures (dancers 

and skiers), and includes a new 

interview with the artist illuminating the 

progression of his career, the influences 

on his art, and his methods of working. 

Elizabeth Blackadder Prints 

Christopher Allan 

Elizabeth Blackadder has been a 

respected printmaker for over four 

decades and has experimented with 

a range of diverse media including

the first to illustrate and catalogue every 

published print made by Blackadder 

from the 1950s to the present day.

Greek Gold 

From the Treasure Rooms of the 

Hermitage 

Yuri Kalashnik 

This book presents the highlights from 

the collection of ancient Greek gold 

jewellery (dating from the seventh to 

first centuries BC) in the collection 

of the State Hermitage Museum, 

St Petersburg. The jewellery was 

associated with the elaborate funerary 

rites of settlements on the north coast 

of the Black Sea, and was discovered in 

burial mounds in the early nineteenth 

century. Exceptionally well preserved, 

these exquisite pieces of Greek gold, 

from fragile olive wreaths to beautiful 

ear pendants, are reproduced here in 

full-colour. 

Hazel Johnston 

Porcelain 

Edited by Simon Johnston 

Well-known and respected within 

the ceramics community in Britain, 

Hazel Johnston’s pottery displays 

a rare elegance and refinement. 

Existing at a confluence where the 

English studio pottery tradition meets 

early modernism, combined with a 

quiet Asian influence, the work has 

an unforced naturalistic quality of 

breathtaking purity and simplicity. 

Surveying a range of work produced 

over a long and distinguished career, 

this is the first book on the potter.

John McLean 

Ian Collins 


John McLean (b. 1939) has been 

likened to British art’s secret weapon: a 

self-propelled missile whose long career 

has been an unfettered exploration of 

abstraction and a unique journey into 

colour. This is the first book to be 

published on the artist, and celebrates 

his ongoing creativity in painting, as 

well as his more recent forays into 

printmaking, sculpture and his glittering 

designs for cathedral stained-glass 

windows. 

Klimt, Schiele, Moser, Kokoschka 

Vienna 1900 

Edited by Marie-Amélie zu Salm-Salm 

with an introduction by Serge Lemoine 

and essays by Joachim Riedl, Patrick 

Werkner, Markus Neuwirth, Matthias 

Boeckl, Dieter Bogner and Itzhak 

Goldberg 

Exploring the paintings of the key artists 

of the Secessionist Movement within 

the context of Vienna at the turn of the 

twentieth century, this book, which

Magritte and Photography 

Patrick Roegiers 

Translated by Mark Polizzotti 

The extraordinary images of Surrealist 

master René Magritte often began 

in a viewfinder. In this major study, 

the photography critic and Magritte 

scholar Patrick Roegiers draws revealing 

connections between the artist’s 

paintings and his use of photography, 

as a serious component of his painting, 

and as an art in itself. 

Mark Francis 

Richard Dyer, James Peto and Francis 

McKee 

Mark Francis (b.1962, Northern Ireland) 

has played a key role in the exploration 

of the essential nature of painting. 

Primarily an abstract painter, Francis 

often draws upon that which is unseen 

by the naked eye, while pushing the 

boundaries of the painted surface. 

This monumental monograph spans 

the artist’s entire career to date, from 

his early landscapes to his current 

abstractions as well as considering 

the varied influences and sources of 

inspiration throughout his practice.

John Minton 

Dance till the Stars Come Down 

Frances Spalding 

John Minton (1917-57) was a successful 

painter, an admired and influential 

illustrator and, in his own lifetime, a 

myth. Minton kept hidden a deep 

melancholy that eventually led him 

to take his own life aged thirty-nine. 

Frances Spalding’s sensitive account 

of Minton’s life and work makes use 

of letters, articles and revue sketches 

by Minton himself, as well as many 

interviews with the artist’s friends and 

acquaintances. 

The Language of the Nude 

Four Centuries of Drawing the Human 

Body 

William Breazeale, Susan Anderson, 

Christine Giviskos, Christiane 

Andersson 

For centuries the nude body was the 

highest expression of human aspiration. 

The nude was a vehicle to express many 

meanings, be they religious, classical, 

or literary. The Language of the Nude 

acknowledges the weighty significance 

of the nude in our world and 

demonstrates how art has responded 

to its challenges through the ages and 

throughout Europe. 

Margaret Mellis 

Andrew Lambirth 

Margaret Mellis (1914-2009) was 

an artist of diverse skills: a painter, a 

maker of collages and reliefs and a 

sculptor. She was a key figure in British 

Modernism and with her first husband, 

the author and critic Adrian Stokes, was 

pivotal in establishing the influential 

artists’ colony in St Ives. Surprisingly, 

relatively little has been written about 

Mellis. This book, which incorporates 

groundbreaking new research, is the 

first comprehensive monograph on this 

important artist. 

Mary Potter 

A Life of Painting 

Julian Potter 

Mary Potter (1900-81) is now 

recognised as one of the foremost 

British women painters of her time. 

Tracing the story of her life and 

career, this book highlights how she 

did not align herself with any group 

or movement, but instead worked 

independently and unremittingly, 

attracting many loyal admirers.

The Modernist Textile 

Europe and America, 1890–1940 

Virginia Gardner Troy 

Decorative and applied arts played a 

major role in shaping the modernist 

aesthetic. Western artists and 

collectors saw textiles, particularly the 

abstract and handcrafted textiles from 

non-Western societies, as attractive 

alternatives to the European academic 

art tradition. Virginia Gardner Troy 

examines the importance of textiles 

within the context of twentieth-century 

art and design. 

Patrick Caulfield 

Paintings 

Marco Livingstone 

Now available in paperback for the first 

time, this is the only major monograph

Patrick Caulfield, whose work has 

enjoyed widespread popular appeal 

and critical acclaim over the past four 

decades. Patrick Caulfield: Paintings is a 

long overdue assessment of the work of 

one of Britain’s most important painters. 

It will be welcomed by art specialists 

and enthusiasts alike. 

Picasso 

From Caricature to Metamorphosis 

of Style 

Valeriano Bozal, Maria Teresa Ocaña, 

Werner Hofmann, Michel Melot, 

Laurent Gervereau, Brigitte Léal, 

Dominique Dupuis-Labbé and Marie- 

Noëlle Delorme 

Throughout his artistic career Picasso 

was fascinated by both caricature and 

the idea of the grotesque. This is the 

first book to examine the distortion of 

the figure as a central creative force 

in Picasso’s art and as a springboard 

for his continual process of stylistic 

metamorphosis. 

Pioneers of Modern Typography 

Herbert Spencer with a new foreword 

by Rick Poynor 

This book examines the impact 

of twentieth-century avant-garde 

movements on graphic design and 

typography. Carefully disentangling 

the respective influences of Futurism, 

Dadaism, de Stijl, Suprematism, 

Constructivism and the Bauhaus, it also 

provides biographical notes on the key 

figures and is profusely illustrated with 

examples from Apollinaire to Zwart. 


Includes over 500 illustrations

Papunya 

A Place Made After the Story: The 

Beginnings of the Western Desert 

Painting Movement 

Geoffrey Bardon and James Bardon 

Papunya: A Place Made After the 

Story is a first-hand account of the 

artists and the works emanating from 

Papunya: birthplace of the Western 

Desert Painting Movement. Based on 

the exquisitely recorded notes and 

drawings of Geoffrey Bardon, the 

man who instigated the Movement’s 

development, the extensive 

documentation features over 500 

paintings, drawings and photographs, 

many of which have never been seen 

before. 

Peter Kinley 

Catherine Kinley and Marco Livingstone 

Aptly described as ‘an artist’s artist’, 

Peter Kinley (1926-1988) was a wellrespected 

painter who achieved great 

early success and commanded much 

attention during his lifetime. He was 

extensively reviewed during his career, 

but little has been published about his 

work since his death over twenty years 

ago. This book, the first substantial 

monograph, redresses this omission.

Richard Rome 

Martin Holman 

This is the first illustrated overview of 

the forty-year career of British sculptor 

Richard Rome (b.1943), who has 

made an important contribution to 

the development of modernist metal 

sculpture since the 1960s. Martin 

Holman relates Rome’s development 

as a sculptor to the changing scene of 

sculptural practice, from the contrasting 

traditions of modernism and the 

figurative, through the influences 

of New Generation sculpture in the 

mid-1960s and the onslaught of 

Conceptualism and Minimalism at the 

end of the decade. 

Sheila Girling 

Hannah Westley 

This is the first monograph on Sheila 

Girling, a prolific painter who has been 

working consistently for 30 years in 

her studio in Camden Town, London. 

This book examines the evolution of 

Sheila Girling’s paintings, beginning 

with the prize-winning works from the 

Royal Academy Schools and ending 

with the present-day collages. Hannah 

Westley has a close relationship with 

both Girling and her husband (Anthony 

Caro), and she has used this to write a 

sympathetic and insightful account of a 

talented artist. 

Surrealism in Britain 

Michel Remy 

Surrealism in Britain is the first

Understanding Art Objects 

Thinking through the Eye 

Edited by Tony Godfrey with essays 

by Megan Aldrich, Julia Hutt, Carrie 

Rebora Barratt, Catherine Morel, 

James Malpas, Juliet Hacking, Anthony 

Downey, David Bellingham, Bernard 

Vere, Elisabeth Darby, Eugene Tan and 

Anna Moszynska 

What can an art object tell us about its 

meaning today and at its execution? 

Can we ‘read’ artifacts to find out why 

they were made and for whom? What 

do they reveal about their context and 

how has their value changed over the 

years? Understanding Art Objects 

presents thirteen essays written by 

teachers and consultants at Sotheby’s 

Institute addressing these exact 

questions. 

William Crozier 

Edited by Katharine Crouan with essays 

by S.B. Kennedy and Philip Vann 

This is the first major monograph on the 

work of William Crozier (1930-2011), 

who came to prominence in the 1950s 

through the early success and notoriety 

of his exhibitions of assemblages and 

paintings. The book provides a detailed 

survey of Crozier’s wide-ranging work 

over the last fifty years, placing it within 

wider European traditions as well as 

relating it to developments in Irish, 

Scottish and English art. The book 

will be widely welcomed by collectors 

and devotees of the artist’s work, 

students of modern art, and art lovers in 

general.

Andrew Gibbon Williams 

William Roberts is best known as a

and asserts his true status as a major 

contributor to the art of the 20th 

century.
