Tate British Artists: Lucian Freud
Lucian Freud (1922–2011) was one of the most influential artists of his generation. Though he was hailed as the “greatest living realist painter,” Freud’s commitment to realism, and particularly to the human figure, was often controversial. Always creating debate, Freud consistently addressed questions of human existence and perception, testing, through a sustained practice of looking, the possibility of knowing and recording human individuality. In this brand new survey of the artist’s life and work, Virginia Button introduces us to one of the 20th century’s most important artists... [Read More]

Tate British Artists: J.M.W. Turner
J. M. W. Turner (1775–1851) is probably Britain’s greatest painter. Both profoundly original and astonishingly prolific, he helped transform landscape painting into an expressive art form of enormous range and power. This book reveals the extent to which Turner wanted his paintings to communicate intellectually as well as emotionally and how he used landscape as a vehicle for deep ruminations on society, politics, and the human condition. Sam Smiles discusses and illustrates the whole range of Turner’s work.

Tate British Artists: William Scott
This book is a comprehensive introduction to the life and work of the important British abstract painter William Scott (1913–1989).

By 1951, the forms had begun to take on a life of their own, sometimes as metaphors of erotic encounters between male and female. Moving back and forth between abstract and representational styles, Scott gained international renown and has been the subje... [Read More]

Tate British Artists: Samuel Palmer
Samuel Palmer (1805-1881) is one of the best-loved but least understood figures in British art. A romantic at heart, he lived through most of the Victorian age, increasingly at odds with the world around him, yet sustained by his belief in the abiding values of beauty, poetry, and landscape. This book is the first to critically examine Palmer's career, and to present his work within the artistic and cultural context of his times. It explores the visual and literary sources of his early pastoral drawings and reveals how Palmer's later work engaged with the burning controversies of the day.
