"This is the first book to examine Uglow's entire output in paintings. Richard Kendall's essay explores the formation of Uglow's fundamental attitudes, beliefs and processes in the years 1950 to 1970. Catherine Lampert looks at the content and personal nature of the artist's paintings over a lifetime, emphasizing his growing attention to colour and light. The volume reproduces every known oil painting by Uglow - a total of more than 440 works, some 80 of which are here reproduced for the first time. In addition to full bibliographic references and exhibition history, the catalogue entries provide many other details and illuminating notes about the paintings, including the artist's own observations and the recollections of models, friends and critics."--Jacket.
