520 $aFrancis Bacon's tormented self-images, his brutal portrayals of friends and fellow artists, and his deformations and stylistic distortions of classicism have broken the mould of portraiture; no other painter of the twentieth century has so drastically overturned the genre. Bacon: Portraits and Self-Portraits, published in association with the Estate of Francis Bacon, is the first book to be dedicated to this aspect of his work.
520 8 $aWith superb reproductions of more than 130 studies and portraits, including those of Lucian Freud, George Dyer, John Edwards, Isabel Rawsthorne, Mick Jagger, Muriel Belcher and Henrietta Moraes, Bacon: Portraits and Self-Portraits offers new insight into these radical and disturbing images. Many details are included, revealing for the first time the varied textures of Bacon's paint surface.
520 8 $aMilan Kundera, the famed Czech novelist, provides a perceptive introduction, explaining his response to Bacon's works, while France Borel sets them in the context of his life and influences, and explains his pioneering approach to portraiture.
