Adrian Wiszniewski remains best known as one of the 'New Glasgow Boys', who shot to prominence in the mid-1980s with huge, exuberant figure paintings as redolent of fantasy and myth as they were attuned to the workings of contemporary thought and everyday life. This book, with over 100 illustrations of the most important work, is the first to provide an overview of Wiszniewski's art over thirty years of continuity and change. Ten essays mix chronological survey with thematic discussion to identify both the core elements and the more distinctive features of the artist's surprisingly consistent creative personality. Heavy/oversize book. U.K. postage at default charge. Overseas buyers may be asked for a little extra. Enquiries welcome. All orders professionally packed, tracked and/or signed for, and insured.
