'Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers' - Charles W.Eliot
Artist: Barbara Hepworth Authors: Penelope Curtis and Alan Wilkinson Publishers: Tate Date: 1994 Condition: A used but eminently serviceable copy, some light handling and shelf marks to the cover and minor fading to the spine. Illustrated throughout in colour and black and white
Published to accompany a 1994 exhibition at Tate Liverpool which marked the beginning of the reassessment of Hepworth’s work and reputation that has seen her now firmly established as one of the most important British artists of her generation. Interestingly written and well-illustrated, a great read and a lot of useful information.
