Description

This exhibition and publication bring together for the first time the work of five powerful, individual, figurative painters working in Britain in the 1950s: Joan Eardley (1921-1963), Sheila Fell (1931-1979), Eva Frankfurther (1930-1959), Josef Herman (1911-2000) and L S Lowry (1887-1976). Spanning 1945-64, it showcases their range, inventiveness and often widely differing approaches to figuration and practice in the pivotal postwar period. The publication includes 100 illustrations from both public and private collections. --Front flap.
