Artist Philip Reeves (b.1931, Cheltenham) has lived and worked in
Glasgow since the mid-1950s. Landscape and cityscape underpin his
artistic vision, which has explored varying degrees of
representation and realism, as well as an ever-evolving
abstraction. This long overdue book is the first to survey his
entire career, covering his printmaking, watercolour painting,
drawing, collage and reliefs. Reeves has brought his own fresh
subtlety and distinctiveness to the developing history and
expressive potential of abstraction. His printmaking experiments
have encompassed both innovative uses of the etching plate and the
deployment of found objects. Such work has led to his recognition
as an artist of note, particularly in Scotland where he has had
many exhibitions. Author Christopher Andreae charts this exhibition
history alongside Reeves' impact as a teacher at Glasgow School of
Art and as a founding member of print studios in Edinburgh and
Glasgow. The breadth of Reeves's work, illustrated extensively here
for the first time, may surprise even those who know and like his
art. Those who are yet to encounter the oeuvre will find in Philip
Reeves a fascinating introduction to a highly inventive artist.
