Inhaltsangabe

Irish-born Sean Scully is one of the most important abstract painters alive today. Over the course of more than thirty years, he has produced a vibrant, compelling and constantly inventive body of work in a range of media that is widely collected and internationally exhibited. His familiar signature style of lines or bands of color alluding to architectural elements such as portals, windows and walls is instantly recognizable.
Published to accompany a major European exhibition tour, Sean Scully: A Retrospective includes work in all media - painting, photographs, prints, drawings and watercolors - from the early 1970s to the present, the only book to cover Scully's entire career to date. Texts by respected curators Danilo Eccher, Lorand Hegyi and Maria Lluisa Borras and award-winning American critic and art historian Donald Kuspit position the artist in his rightful place within the traditions of earlier abstraction and of painting in general, while discussing the spiritual, emotional and very human nature of his art.
