William Scott

About “William Scott”

This publication offers a reassessment of William Scott's work outside the framework of modernist theory, presenting for the first time many previously unseen works including drawings that Scott described as "exploring not explaining, containing geometry, sex, distortion and correction, forms pure and impure." Accompanying a major exhibition in the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin, organized in association with the Scott Family, it discusses and illustrates in colour almost one hundred works by the artist and includes biographical details, artist's statements, and contemporary reviews.
