This title was first published in 2003. Peter Lanyon stood at the
forefront of landscape painting in Europe during the late 1950s and
early 60s. A prominent St Ives artist, he was associated with
Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson and Naum Gabo; his work also has
affinities with abstract expressionism. Lanyon's career started
just as the study of drawing was being liberated from 19th-century
academic constrictions. His many drawings range from records of
trips to the Netherlands and Italy to portrait sketches and
abstract studies. Lanyon also used drawings extensively in the
development of some of his most important paintings. In this study,
Margaret Garlake explores Lanyon's theory and practice of drawing;
the contribution of drawings to the evocation of place in
paintings; his use of models and the metamorphosis of the human
body into landscape images, as well as his use of three-dimensional
constructions as equivalents to drawing.
