Description
Frank Auerbach Speaking and Painting Born in Berlin in 1931, Frank Auerbach's life was marked by displacement and loss. At eight years old, he was sent to England to escape the Nazi regime, a move that would shape his artistic career. Now in his eighties, Auerbach continues to produce his distinctive paintings, capturing the people and surroundings that have been his constant companions. This book offers a rare insight into Auerbach's professional life, working methods, and philosophy, drawn from his own words and archival interviews. The artist reflects on the places, people, and inspirations that have shaped his life, including his experiences as a refugee child, his friendships with fellow artists, and his approaches to looking and painting. For anyone interested in how an artist approaches his craft, this book is a valuable resource.
