Gillian Carnegie by Barry Schwabsky
This is the first substantial publication on the work of British artist Gillian Carnegie. In contemporary painting her work stands apart, quietly, calmly and insistently uncanny, with an emotional tenor unlike anything else in art today.
'Gillian Carnegie’s paintings are some of the most hypnotizing reflections on the modern world around; seemingly plain surfaces shimmer with something profoundly mysteriousBarry Schwabsky’s account of the evolution of her work is both wonderfully informative and beautifully written. I unreservedly recommend it.' -- Jennifer Higgie * Editor at Large, Frieze *
