Exploring the ways in which painting, applied design and illustration intertwined over the course of the accomplished career of Paul Nash (1889-1946), this book provides a new perspective on one of the most gifted and celebrated English artists of the twentieth century. Skilfully navigating the diversity of Nash' s design output, which drew in illustration, book jackets, posters, set design, pattern papers, fabrics, glass, ceramics and photography, in the context of Nash' s painting and wider pre-occupations, James King presents an artist who strove to resolve his artistic vision. With Nash' s work informed by seismic shifts within the visual arts during his lifetime - from the influence of the Arts and Crafts Movement on the one hand, to Surrealism and Abstraction on the other - this fascinating book reveals the considerable gifts that allowed Nash to create a wholly original vision in turn.
James King is a Professor of English at McMaster University, Canada. A prolific writer of both fiction and non-fiction, previous books include Interior Landscapes: A Life of Paul Nash, The Last Modern: A Life of Herbert Read and Roland Penrose: The Life of a Surrealist.
