The second book designed for Dulwich in their series of exhibitions exploring the work of 20th century British artists. It revisits a major figure from a somewhat neglected generation which dominated the British art scene in the 1930s and 1940s. Focusing on the period from the mid-1930s - when Sutherland established his identity as a modern painter - to the 1950's when his influence began to wane, it portrays the types of work that gave rise to a widespread consensus amongst fellow painters and critics that Sutherland was the most exciting and compelling voice in contemporary British painting.
