This beautifully illustrated book takes readers inside Samuel and
Gabrielle Lurie's dynamic private collection of contemporary
British art, an intended gift to the Yale Center for British Art.
Spanning the past four decades, the collection includes major works
by Ian Stephenson, Patrick Caulfield, and John Walker, as well as
important prints by Howard Hodgkin and R. B. Kitaj. At its core are
52 paintings and drawings by John Hoyland, widely considered one of
Britain's foremost abstract painters. The Independent Eye features
an interview with the Luries, as well as essays by leading critics
and writers, some of whom were and are personally acquainted with
the artists represented. These experts assess individual artists
and works, explore their inspirations and methods, and define their
shared experiences and values. They also address subjects such as
the overall importance of the collection and postwar art in
Britain. Distributed for the Yale Center for British Art Exhibition
