Riassunto

The first major monograph on Scott, including many works that have never been seen before or reproduced. Born in Scotland in 1913, William Scott was raised in Northern Ireland, the oldest boy in a family of eleven children. He trained at the Belfast College of Art and the Royal Academy Schools in London, and first came to the public's attention when he participated in the Arts Council's exhibition as part of the 1951 Festival of Britain. In 1953 he visited Rothko, Pollock, de Kooning, and others in New York, and began to exhibit there regularly. His work ranges from abstract paintings to ever-richer still lifes with multiple levels of paint, and multiple levels of meaning. This book includes work from all periods, reproduced in 300 full-color plates. 400 illustrations, 300 in color.
