The Paintings of Steven Campbell: The Story So FarThis book is the first comprehensive account of the art of one of the most remarkable artists working in Britain today. It traces his career from the highly original work that he completed as a student at Glasgow School of Art down to the somber and powerful works that he has created over the last several years. The book explores Campbell's inspiration and shows how he has used the forms of figurative and narrative painting to comment on the human condition. |
