The most comprehensive monograph on Turner Prize-nominated artist Peter Doig. Peter Doig is such an artist. In every generation of artists, there are a few-or perhaps just one-who propose a new set of questions and alter the way we understand art.
Doig's landscapes have been inspired by the many places the artist has lived-England, Canada, Trinidad. So, While stories of painting's demise in the early 1990s deemed painters and their work quaintly anachronistic, Doig-looking ahead as much as back for inspiration-forged a new painterly language: an ironic mix of Romanticism and post-impressionism to create haunting and sometimes dreamlike landscape vistas.In this lavish new volume devoted to his entire career-which includes paintings, drawings, and reference material, such as found photographs-art historians Richard Shiff and Catherine Lampert mine the artist's rich and varied work.
