Description

Philip Reeves: A Comprehensive Survey of His Artistic Career Artist Philip Reeves (b.1931) has lived and worked in Glasgow since the mid-1950s, with his artistic vision shaped by landscape and cityscape. This long-awaited book presents a comprehensive survey of his career, spanning printmaking, watercolour painting, drawing, collage, and reliefs. Reeves' innovative approach to abstraction has brought fresh subtlety and distinctiveness to the development of this art movement. His experimental printmaking techniques have incorporated both innovative uses of the etching plate and the deployment of found objects, earning him recognition as an artist of note in Scotland. The book also explores Reeves' role as a teacher at Glasgow School of Art and his involvement with print studios in Edinburgh and Glasgow. For those familiar with Reeves' work, this book will offer a new perspective on his oeuvre, while introducing newcomers to the art of Philip Reeves.
