This Book Revisits A Major Figure From A Somewhat Neglected Generation Which Dominated The British Art Scene In The 1930s And 1940s. Focusing On The Period From The Mid-1930s - When Sutherland Established His Identity As A Modern Painter - To The 1950s, When His Influence Began To Wane, It Portrays The Types Of Work That Gave Rise To A Widespread Consensus Amongst Fellow Artists And Critics That Sutherland Was The Most Exciting And Compelling Voice In Contemporary British Painting. This Long-overdue And Much-requested Exhibition And Accompanying Catalogue (there Has Not Been A Substantial Sutherland Show In London Since 1982) Comprises 85 Oils And Works On Paper Drawn From Public And Private Collections Throughout The Uk, And Offers A Selective Interpretation Of His Painting Rather Than The Usual Career Retrospective.--jacket.
