The Art of Duncan Grant by Simon Watney
Popularly associated with the Bloomsbury Group, Duncan Grant also played a leading role in the establishment of modernist art in Britain. As well as easel painting and murals, he did fabric design, theatre and ballet work, illustration and print-making, and commercial interior decoration. Throughout a long life Duncan Grant continued to experiment with and adapt to new styles and techniques, and this book offers an opportunity to grasp the extent of his achievement. It examines the influence that people and places had on him and demonstrates, with more than a hundred illustrations of his work, the range of his talent.Simon Watney is Director of the Red Hot AIDS Charitable Trust in the U.
