Though one of the youngest painters ever elected to the RA and the subject of many one-man shows, this is the first book dedicated to Fred Cuming's work as a whole.The book is illustrated with over 70 paintings and photographs and the autobiographical text has been edited by Christian Tyler.
The introduction has been written by Richard Holmes who says of Cuming: 'Essentially a visionary painter...he has developed the most delicate, painstaking descriptive techniques...what he really does is re-invent the world through colour. His world feels as if it has been dreamt, or remembered from a dream, suffused with feelings that can never be named.'
Measuring 25.5 x 28.5cms with 127 pages.
