During the Blitz, both artists produced images depicting civilians sheltering in the London Underground. These \"shelter pictures\" were circulated to millions via popular magazines and today rank as iconic works of their time. This book begins with these wartime works and examines the artists' intersecting paths in the postwar period. Key themes include war, industry, and the coal mine; landscape and Britain's great megalithic sites; found objects; and the human body. Special photographic reproduction captures the materiality of the print as a three-dimensional object rather than a flat, disembodied image on the page. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished by the Yale Center for British Art\/Distributed by Yale University Press \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Hepworth Wakefield\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (February 7-November 1, 2020) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eSainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, Norwich\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (November 21, 2020-February 28, 2021) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eYale Center for British Art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (November 17, 2022-February 26, 2023)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martina Droth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 030025105X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300251050\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yc British Art\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/25\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 13.20h x 10.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Martina Droth","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43913611542783,"sku":"9780300251050","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_2c4ef17f-b2d0-4d14-aeec-1bc3339f474e.jpg?v=1680621355","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bill-brandt-henry-moore-martina-droth-9780300251050","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
