| Description: |
Republication of Nash's autobiography in paperback form for the first time in two decades. |
| Synopsis: |
Trained at the Slade School of Art, and following the romantic traditions of first Rossettiand then Blake, Paul Nash is regarded as one of the twentieth century's most successfulartists. His decimated landscapes of World War I are perhaps the most memorablepainted by any official war artist.Following the war, Nash continued to paint landscapes finding inspiration in ancientburial mounds and iron age forts. It has been said of Nash that `no artist has interpretedthe beauty and rhythm of the English countryside as perfectly as he'. His paintingsgradually became more abstract and he became a leading exponent of the Surrealismmovement. Everyday objects placed into the scenes lent them new meaning andsymbolism. He was also a prolific book illustrator, textile designer, theatre designerand photographer. World War II saw him undertake Official War Artist duties for asecond time and his anthropomorphic depictions of aircraft and his symbolically richlandscapes are some of the best known artworks from the period.He was also a wonderful writer. This autobiography - sadly filed way at the outbreakof World War II and unfinished - paints a vivid picture of the early part of Nash'slife. Enticingly, his biographical notes, also reproduced in this edition, offer a skeletalframework for the rest of the book. |
