Description
Alan Davie in Hertford presents a fresh perspective on the life and work of the Scottish artist Alan Davie. Far from being a figure defined by his association with abstract expressionism, this book argues that Davie was a prophetic artist whose concerns with universal creativity and self-realisation remain highly relevant today.
Lavishly illustrated with rare archive photographs and little-seen paintings, the book explores Davie's connection to physical places, particularly the quiet market town of Hertford, where he lived for 60 years. A catalogue of 40 works forms the core collection of a new gallery, providing a comprehensive survey of Davie's work from his student days to some of his final paintings.
This visually spectacular book offers a new understanding of Davie's visionary art and its enduring significance.
