Frank Auerbach: The Sitters provides a comprehensive overview of
the artist's portraiture. It reveals the special connection between
the artist and his 'sitters' - the small group of dedicated models
who have been Auerbach's chief subject over a career spanning seven
decades. A comprehensive list of his sitters has been compiled here
for the first time, providing new biographical information about
his models from E.O.W. to J.Y.M. and beyond. Frank Auerbach: The
Sitters includes a wide range of contributors. An essay by the art
critic William Feaver describes the experience of sitting for
Auerbach, while a conversation from 2001 between the artist and
Martin Gayford describes Auerbach's intentions and process.
Auerbach's close friendship with the art historian Michael Podro is
also explored, with a short memoir by Natasha Podro and a
re-published, little known essay from 1969 by Podro himself. Forty
paintings and drawings from 1956 to 2020 are illustrated in colour,
with thoroughly researched catalogue entries that shed new light on
the artist's relationships and his work. The publication
accompanies Piano Nobile's exhibition Frank Auerbach: The Sitters,
held in autumn 2022.
