William Crozier / Katharine Crouan.

Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This is the first major monograph on the work of William Crozier (1930-2011), who came to prominence in the 1950s through the early success and notoriety of his exhibitions of assemblages and paintings. The book provides a detailed survey of Crozier's wide-ranging work over the last fifty years, placing it within wider European traditions as well as relating it to developments in Irish, Scottish and English art. Crozier is a formidable colourist and the critical texts are accompanied by extensive reproductions of the artist's work in colour. The book will be widely welcomed by collectors and devotees of the artist's work, students of modern art, and art lovers in general.
