Contents: Though one of the
youngest painters ever elected to the Royal Academy (an
Associate at the age of 39 in 1969; a full RA in 1974)
and the subject of many one-man shows (including ten at
the New Grafton Gallery between 1983 and 2000), this is
the first book dedicated to Fred Cuming’s work as a
whole. The distinguished columnist Christian Tyler, who
wrote an essay for The Financial Times in 199, has
edited Cuming’s autobiographical text which is
illustrated with over 70 paintings and photographs, most
of which are reproduced in colour.
