British artist Gary Hume first found international fame in the early 1990s, with his series of bold, abstract door paintings. As one of the YBAs, his work was featured in Freeze (1988) and Charles Saatchi's Sensation (1997) exhibition and he has exhibited internationally since, becoming best known for vibrant, large-scale paintings, executed in planes of bold, glossy colour. A Turner Prize nominee and Royal Academician, Hume is a key figure in twentieth-century painting and a powerful influence on younger generations of contemporary artists.
This beautifully presented hardback book is published to accompany the third exhibition in the Arts Council Collection's acclaimed Flashback series, in which early acquisitions from key international artists are juxtaposed with newer work from British collections. Gary Hume joins Bridget Riley and Anish Kapoor in this popular series of survey publications. Essay by Dave Hickey. Interview with the artist by Caroline Douglas.

A book full of ideas so easily forgottenl or overlooked as a painter. A good reminder of techniques that relate to the use of acrylics. Very straightforward, well illustrated. An excellent buy.

As a man much wittier than I said of Les Coleman and his work, "Les is More."
Indeed we all agree that he was.
Such a wonderful collection of title from across the arts and culture spectrum. I absolutely love that you offer books that delve into the niches of the art world, limited run artist led publishing, artists practicing away from the mainstream and so on. The prices are a bonus, and the quick service is outstanding! I for one will keep coming back. Thank you!!!

I love this book. It's very readable, informative and well written, covering one of the most exciting and revolutionary periods of art history. The author includes glimpses of how the artists' early work fared at auction and the public's reaction to the new art movements in exhibitions.
