2005168077London: Black Dog Publishing 2005. Hardcover. VG. Grey illustrated boards with black spine and BW illustration inlaid. 206 pp. Color illustrations. This is the first monograph on the influential yet elusive artist Simon English. Away from the Brit Art hype of the 1990s English's oeuvre has developed from the early paintings to a gritty treatment of desire and fantasy. Focusing on his current practice of detailed drawings that function as both installations and self-contained narratives the book contains a range of unique reproductions creating an extraordinary visual tale. English's figures appear as a mass of tableaux: erotic playful confessional and complex but as carming and often as innocent as the children's book that has preoccupied English The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark by Jill Tomlinson.English's alluring explorations of autobiography and the imaginary create lyrical structures that are discussed in the accompanying texts by Stella Santacatterina and Bill Arning and mirrored the design of the book. -Amazon.

"This beauttifully produced volume brings together for the first time works by two remarkable painters of seventeenth-century Italy who happen also to have been father and daughter: Orazio and Artemisia Gentileschi. Famous in their own day these two artists have enjoyed renewed fame in the twentieth century: Orazio as one of the first and certainly the most individual of Caravaggio's followers; Artemisia as the outstanding female painter prior to the twentieth century. The tumultuous lives of these two artists moved along parallel trajectories and take the reader from the popular quarters of papal Rome and te rough-and-tumble world of Naples to the courts of the grand duke of Tuscany Marie de' Medici in Paris and Charles I in London. These changing circumstances nourished two different aesthetic visions both of which were deeply rooted in the Caravaggesque practice of painting directly from the posed model. While Orazio's art became ever more refined and elegant Artemisia espoused a rhetorical form of dramatic presentation that is the basis of Baroque painting." dj With essays and dozens of examples of the artists' work in the annotated and illustrated catalog.
