Description
Derek Boshier Drawings presents a comprehensive collection of the artist's lifetime work, tracing his development from the 1960s to the present day. Drawing is at the core of Boshier's practice, which encompasses painting, printmaking, film and video, graphic design, and mail art. Through pencil, pen and ink, and black acrylic, Boshier reconfigures found imagery in a unique manner, addressing social and political issues through the expressive power of line. The book explores recurring imagery, such as the falling man and profile head, as well as his drawings for album art, songbooks, and mail art. A comprehensive essay by Leslie Jones provides context to Boshier's work, while Ella Gold's design brings the book together. This is the first major publication on Boshier's drawings since 1982, offering a unique insight into an artist whose practice continues to engage with life and media culture.
