"The Turner Prize winner leads a visual tour through his life in six artworks - from college days to knighthood." — Telegraph Grayson Perry vividly reflects on his art, life and career, remembering the sources of inspiration and influences along the way. Victoria Coren Mitchell’s thought-provoking contribution considers the role of humour in Perry’s art, highlighting the often-underestimated effort involved in being at once a serious artist and a lovable character. Patrick Elliott provides an illuminating biographical essay of the artist. The reader is also given a fascinating glimpse into the technique and process behind Perry’s prints, pots and tapestries. Showcasing 75 exhibited works, the book covers the full range and breadth of his astonishing career. |
