Over his long and successful career David Remfry MBE RA RWS has
achieved a mastery of watercolour that few have matched. Unusually
for the medium, he works on a large scale and often focuses on
people, exploring the dance hall and the nightclub in breathtaking
images that are at once beautiful and edgy. This book is the first
full-length monograph devoted to the artist's watercolours. Its
author, James Russell, is well known for his writing on
20th-century British artists. Russell brings his scholarship,
humour and fascination for people and their lives to his study of
Remfry's career, tracing the evolution of a remarkable talent,
looking in depth at the most significant works and placing Remfry
in the context of both the British watercolour tradition and
international contemporary painting. This is at once a glorious art
book and an intimate portrait of city life. Having spent 20 years
living and working at the legendary Chelsea Hotel in New York,
Remfry has a following on both sides of the Atlantic. New Yorkers -
often in party mode - feature in many of his watercolours, and his
recollections of people and places add colour to the text.
