The incomplete circle

About this book

"The volume takes an unusual form. Instead of essays, it is a spirited exchange of letters between Ricky Atkinson and David Lewis, and an array of English, Canadian and American artists and teacher friends (John Davies, Duncan de Kergommeaux, Sir Terry Frost, George Hainsworth, Stephen Joy, Arlene Kennedy, Norbert Lynton, Colin Phipps, Peter Stead and Fred Steinmetz) which offers a fascinating insight into the creative process at the heart of art education over the past forty years. It is generously illustrated with 200 reproductions (including 25 in colour) of work by Ricky Atkinson (and other comparative material), and will be an indispensable source book for all those concerned with the ferment in art education on both sides of the Atlantic."--BOOK JACKET.
