A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Adrian Frazier's story about his friend John Behan is an informed, compelling personal account of this remarkable man. It gives focus and depth to the life of one of Ireland's leading visual artists. The narrative follows Behan's childhood in east Dublin to his role as a pivotal member of the creative fusion that was 1960s Dublin 'Baggotonia' (including Patrick Kavanagh, John Montague, Seamus Heaney, Patrick Pye, Camille Souter and Thomas Kinsella) and of the Independent Artists' group. John Behan has lived in Galway for many years, helping to establish the region and the city as a creative haven for its many artists and galleries: it is here that author and sculptor became friends. Beautifully designed and with over thirty full-colour photographs and illustrations, John Behan: The Bull of Sheriff Street is a fitting tribute and celebration of Ireland's most famous living sculptor. The work includes a listing of one hundred of the artist's principal works.
