Modernists & Mavericks - SoftcoverA masterfully narrated account of painting in London from the Second World War to the 1970s, illustrated throughout with documentary photographs and works of art The development of painting in London from the Second World War to the 1970s is the story of interlinking friendships, shared experiences and artistic concerns among a number of acclaimed artists, including Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Frank Auerbach, David Hockney, Bridget Riley, Gillian

  • A masterfully narrated account of painting in London from the Second World War to the 1970s, illustrated throughout with documentary photographs and works of art
  • The development of painting in London from the Second World War to the 1970s is the story of interlinking friendships, shared experiences and artistic concerns among a number of acclaimed artists, including Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Frank Auerbach, David Hockney, Bridget Riley, Gillian Ayres, Frank Bowling and Howard Hodgkin
  • Drawing on extensive first-hand interviews, many previously unpublished, with important witnesses and participants, the art critic Martin Gayford teases out the thread connecting these individual lives, and demonstrates how painting thrived in London against the backdrop of Soho bohemia in the 1940s and 1950s and ‘Swinging London’ in the 1960s
  • He shows how, influenced by such different teachers as David Bomberg and William Coldstream, and aware of the work of contemporaries such as Jackson Pollock as well as the traditions of Western art from Piero della Francesca to Picasso and Matisse, the postwar painters were allied in their confidence that this ancient medium, in opposition to photography and other media, could do fresh and marvellous things.

the absolute BEST paper towels
Package Size Name: Super, Size: 81 Sheets (Pack of 24)
These are the best paper towels, Ever. We now exclusively buy them and this multi pack is a good value. The paper towel sheet feels more like cloth than paper towel, they are exceptionally soft, but sturdy and hold up and can really clean a lot with even one sheet. Very absorbent and I cannot stress how soft they are. These seriously are the only paper towels that we will use anymore, and have been using for the past 5 years. Cannot recommend these enough

Best paper towels on the market
Package Size Name: Super, Size: 81 Sheets (Pack of 24)
We have these on deck all the time. Absorbency is great but for windows and mirrors they always leave residue.
