Richard Hamilton: introspective

Product detailed description

Unfinished Book presents Richard Hamilton’s final, incomplete text-and-image project, conceived as a companion to his 2003 Retrospective catalogue raisonné (1937–2000). Written and designed by Hamilton (with Phillip Spectre’s assistance) during a period of convalescence after a hip fracture, the project saw content, typography, and images evolve in tandem with the emergence of digital layout tools like Adobe InDesign.

Published exactly as Hamilton left it in 2011 – complete with blank leaves, original pagination, and unaltered layouts – this volume offers a rare window into the late creative process of one of Britain’s foremost painters and collage artists, capturing his lifelong commitment to innovation in both form and method.
