Bill Jacklin Hardcover - 1997

by Bill Jacklin (Photographer); Contribution by Pierre Levai; John Russell Taylor


From the publisher

Bill Jacklin (b.1943) is one of the most exciting and individual artists of the generation that first came to prominence in the 1960s. From the start, he seemed destined to swim against the stream. In an era of Pop Art he chose to be an abstract artist, producing intricate patterns of grids and dots. When he had achieved success in this style, he returned to a revolutionary type of realistic representation. He was - and still is - an obsessed and obsessive painter, driven by his own compulsion to pursue an untrodden path.

This book provides the definitive mid-career survey of this British-American artist, as it deconstructs with thorough analytical depth the generation, progression and current state of Jacklin's artistic achievements; the significance of his oeuvre as a whole; and the underlying significance for his work of his personal outlook on life. This is a beautiful edition in itself, displaying innovative design, strong visual impact and a delicate yet distinctive aestheticism - which altogether substantiate the artistic sensitivity of Jacklin himself.

"Bill Jacklin is one of the most exciting and individual artists of the generation that first came to prominence in the 1960s. Born in London, where he made his early reputation, and now living in New York, he has seemed destined from the start to swim against the stream, neither following fashion nor reacting in knee-jerk fashion against it, but rather being driven by his own internal compulsions. In an era of Pop Art he chose to be an abstract artist, producing intricate patterns of grids and dots. When he had achieved success in this style, and everything seemed to be going his way, he felt irresistibly impelled to return to a type of realistic representation, and so found himself ostracized as a traitor to the cause of abstraction - something which, as a cause, he had never espoused in the first place.
