Hurvin Anderson (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781917055055)

Experience the intensely colorful work of British artist Hurvin Anderson

Experience the intensely colorful work of British artist Hurvin Anderson.

Anderson's first major solo show brings together more than 60 of his vibrant paintings, spanning the artist's entire career, from his days as a student to his most recent works.

Through color-drenched landscapes and interiors, Anderson meanders back and forth across the Atlantic between the UK and the Caribbean. The youngest of eight children, he was the first to be born in the UK after his family left Jamaica for Birmingham in the 1960s. As a result, Anderson's work reflects on his experiences of belonging and diaspora.

Thanks to his profoundly atmospheric use of composition to explore the markers of identity, this exhibition confirms Anderson's standing as one of the most important contemporary painters of a generation.
