Scottish Art in the 20th Century by Duncan Macmillan

This text tells the story of modern Scottish painting and sculpture. It sets out the claim of artists like Macintosh and Fergusson to be partners, not followers in the early modern movement. It traces the impact of the ideas of the Scots Renaissance on the work of painters such as William Godstone, the evolution of a distinct Edinburgh School with Sir William Gillies, Anne Redpath and Sir Robin Philipson. It also details the important place that artists from Scotland such as Joan Eardley, Sir Eduardo Paolozzi and Alan Davie played in the post-war period in Britain. It examines the achievement of Ian Hamilton Finlay, the revolutionary impact of John Bellany's work and finally artists such as Steven Campbell, Ken Currie and others who have marked a new flowering of Scottish art in the 1980s and 1990s. This study follows the author's "Scottish Art 1460-1990" which won the Scottish Book of the Year.
