Chris Orr, the well known British painter and printmaker, takes us on a tour of his prodigious and penetrating vision of the world over the last twelve years.
Chris Orr was made a fellow of the Royal College of Art in 1985, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Painter Printmakers in 1988 and a Royal Academician in 1995. He received an MBE for services to the Arts in 2008. He lives and works in London.
When Chris Orr asked Richard Davey to visit his studio to talk about collaborating on a book about his drawings and watercolours, Davey didn't know what to expect. Like many people, he was aware of his prints, with their satirical humour and complex, witty visual narratives. But he was unaware of the many drawings and watercolours Orr has made over the years, sometimes as preparatory drawings that might lead to prints, sometimes
made directly on his travels, sometimes as a way of exploring an idea or scratching a political itch.
This book takes the reader on a similar trip to Chris Orr's studio to learn about his methods, his tribulations and pleasure in the creative process.

Really interesting books. I have been collecting art books for many years and I now have quite a few from Books About Art. Sensible prices and the opportunity to support a local (to me) independent book shop instead of Amazon

Brilliant book and price
The Great William Hogarth.
Informative book.
Independent bookshop run by Guy, great books great value prices !
Really impressed with this book store. The prices are very good, my order was delivered quickly, and there’s a brilliant variety of interesting titles to choose from. A smooth, reliable experience from start to finish.
I thought I already knew a great deal about Adge Cutler, but Adge – King of the Wurzels proved me wrong in the best possible way. Packed with fresh stories, fascinating insights, and meticulous detail, it sheds new light on the man behind the music. The writing is engaging and highly readable—I repeatedly found myself reading far longer than I had intended.
Entertaining, informative, and genuinely difficult to put down, this is a must-read for any Wurzels fan. Although I'm Welsh rather than West Country, Adge's appeal reaches far beyond Somerset. His talent, character, and legacy transcend regional boundaries, and this book captures them brilliantly.
Great communication, and book exactly as described
I wasn’t aware these books existed until I came across your web site,both great especially the book about the Colston Hall
Quality and speed of delivery excellent
